I'm retarded you just ment put the (muzzel velocity - 30fps per less inch) into the calculator and they give you the info. Army mentality work harder not smarter. :o The 16 still came out 1436fps and 755ft-lbs @ 600 yrds so same questions. Will it will be reasonably accurate and have enough energy to take down a good size zombie.... I mean wild hog? Trajectory (200 yd. zero) -109.1 @600yrds Come Up in MOA 17.4 another question was, I was wanting to get the nightforce NXS 2.5-10x32 scope with the velocity reticle. I am willing to spend alot on a good optic so I'll take any sugestions on optics that can take abuse and keep zero @ 600yrds.

LOL. I was doing homework for college algebra class when I read this. I wonder if I can get extra credit for working this out. x=(Iv)-[(24-BL)*30fps] fx > 1116.4 (going with horndy 165 gr. BTSP InterLock @ 600yrds) 16in barrel x =(1615fps)-[(24-16)*30fps] x = 1615 - (240) x = 1375 fps impact velocity 18in barrel x = 1615-[(24-18)*30] x = 1615-180 x = 1435fps since its still supersonic I should be good out to 600yds with both right? will this be enough for wild boar in texas? <dontknow>

I would like to be around 500yds maybe 600yds for my max kill range with the shortest barrel. I've looked at some ballistic tables from ammo companies but they all test out of 20-24 in barrels. I know I'll lose some enegy from the shorter barre=less burn. For close range I want to use the 150-155gr? for distance I should use the 160-168gr? I am converting from dirt bikes to shooting for my hobby so be patient with me if I am asking stupid questions.

I want to know what the effective range out of a 16in and 18 barrel are. I have read up on accuracy but that not what I need. I'm asking what range will impacy velocity still be enough to do damage. I am close to picking up LR308 with a 16 or 18 in barrel. Everyone on here has givin out alot of good info so far and just want to thank everyone for it.

does anyone else sell 18 inch barrels?

I just had to sell my homebuilt chopper to help pay for college but have about $2000 left over for a new project. I have been eyeballing the DPMS LR-308B for a while. Whats the compition for it that I can check out.
