Velocity difference in Hornet barrels
« on: January 11, 2009, 03:34:18 PM »
Its me again asking questions about the hornet. Does anyone know what the velocity difference would be between the 20" and 22". Also is the 20" a super light barrel? Thanks, Charlie

Velocity difference between a 20" barrel and a 22" barrel is dependent on the powder, how much powder and bullet weight being used. In most cases I would not think that there would be over 50 fps difference for such a small capacity case.
