    2026 Rifle Plans

    Adding a 6.5-284 barrel to a switch barrel/switch bolt head Specialty Pistol. Also, moving to a magnesium chassis stock, so now, it will be a switch stock as well. Already have one in wood. Once this arrives, I will have barrels in 25 PRC, 6.5 PRC, 25-284, and soon to be added 6.5-284. I will...

    Short barrel 6.5 - How about a RPM?

    There are no cons, other than you will have reduced MV compared to longer barrels Just use the same powders you would normally use for a standard rifle length barrel of 24-26 inches. Let's say the MV with 140's is 3000 fps with a 26" barrel. I would guess 25 to maybe 30 fps loss per inch...
