Dont know how well it will work out of a 18" barrel, my gunsmith advised it would have less muzzle blast and about the same velocity as a 243 so i went for it. The velociry loss between 18" & 20" on a 243 is 50-60 fps based on load data i have found online so i imaging the BR would be about the same. I will use the heaviest V-Max i can get 3000fps out of.

I used these 2 colours with unberbrush to do a gap style camo on my LTR. The company importing duracoat into australia cant get it anymore so i was stuck with the colours i had on hand. I had planned to use the light colour on the stock with mesh for a 2 tone snake skin look but when i bolted it together i liked it as it was. I will hit it with clear coat tonight and leave it the way it is. When i use up my renmaining duracoat colours i can switch to cerakote as there is a big importer of that here.
