For some reason I absolutely missed the fact that TX now allows game animals to be hunted with a suppressor. I happen to have a take off 30 cal barrel and an old (slick) remington m700 la with a standard bolt face that I've considered making something m24ish out of. The barrel is from a gap crusader currently chambered in 308 win, but I just confirmed that it would need to be re-chambered if I want it on the la m700. Anyhow, I'm considering combining the parts with a hsp take-off stock to make a short barrel (16.5-18") setup that would fit a suppressor easily into a deer stand or riding around in a jeep. The barrel is a 11.25 twist.
Question: Will either cartridge be an advantage over the other in a short barrel setup? Will the extra capacity of the '06 do anything for stabilizing heavier bullets with that twist both full power loads and subsonic loads?
