So we have decided to put a muzzle break on this 300 rum I am working on for my buddy (he hates recoil and if I can't take it, he for sure won't so is good with it). 200 grain accubonds at 3100 FPS really slam you in a 9.5 pound setup!
Anyways, my question is, the barrel is a 26" at around .650, .660 at the muzzle. Would you thread that and run it at around 27.5" or cut back the muzzle to say 25" and run it as a total of a touch over 26" total? I figured cutting back to 25" would only loose us 40-50FPS max - still leaving the 200 's the ability to run plenty fast enough. Thoughts?
