    Subsonic 200 gr to 240gr 308 RUAG suffered no accuracy or stability stability issues when fired through 1-10 twist barrels & barrel length ran from 16 to 20”, test firing was done with and without suppressor to confirm accuracy/stability !! Plus I need one of these Rem 700 PCR SB Shorty

    Very interesting. I don't know much about ballistics but I wonder how short you can go before your ~400 yard accuracy and put down power suffers. But man, I like the idea of packing something that small around, not to mention that much lighter without the extra ~6" of heavy barrel.

    I suspect that a 12 1/2" .308 with a M-4 type stock might be a bit on the nasty side, as far as recoil goes. Putting on a brake will help with the recoil, but it might be a bit on the rude side when it comes to blast.

    Sounds like you are going to need a lot of 308s gravel!

    It’ll be loud for sure but I don’t think it’s bite will be that bad, I’ve had an M4 stock on a short barrel 12g for a few years and until I ran a bunch of 3” sabots through a longer rifled barrel I never needed a recoil pad. The M4 buttstock wasn’t bad, the 3” magnum loads beat the hell out of me. Shooting off bags while sighting I’m the scope I had mounted didn’t help, I was black and blue for awhile lol.

    We've had some of our dealers put a few on order so far, but by the response we've had, they might need more!!
