Barrel Length/Velocity Question - Trailwatcher - 02-04-2025

I did a few searches on here and didn't come up with much. Have any of you ever seen a test or chart of velocity differences using the same ammo with barrel lengths from 14"-22"?

Thanks

Have not seen that test on 6Arc, but the Hornady pdf for factory 108-110 gr loads contains a good table of MV's over varying barrel lengths. Sure it's probably aimed at that bullet weight, but the relative drops and MV relationship will likely hold for other loads too.

There's a table (which I put into an excel sheet) on the Grendel site for MV vs grendel barrels, but it won't 1 for 1 apply to the 6 Arc.
