Some FNG and hopefully not so FNG questions.

[Sticks]

alright, well I cut my barrel down to 18"
I am curious how much velocity I will loose.
I'll post up some chrono numbers.
I'm also curious to see if my groups improve.
There was a fair amount of run out on the threads, My suppressor had a significant amount of POI shift.
Also curious to see if I can clean that up a bit so I went for it and cut it down. Hope I didn't make a huge mistake!
current velocity on the black horandy 123grn ammo was 1450ish. Any guesses what it will be with an 18" instead of 20" barrel?
post up! I should be able to chrono this weekend sometime.

You meant 2450 right?

I am getting 2477 out of my 18" Barlitien. You will probably land in the 2425 zone. Shorter than 18" the velocity drops a lot more per inch.

I've been casually researching powder-coating bullets but have never seen how much it adds to the OD of the bullet. If it could put a thousandth or two on those Wolf bullets it could make them (somewhat) useful.

Good thought. You would have to swage the bullets when you were done.

I don't know what the powder coating will do to a barrel though.
