Anyone shot they're shorty m305 yet?

Hey Guys
I haven't got an M305 yet but it's next on the list of must have guns, I just can't decide between the shorty or the long. Any thoughts? Any difference in accuracy? I know you're probably going to loos 200fps but paper never seemed to care much.

You may loose around 50-75 FPS, shorter cartridges do not require long barrels to burn all their powder like a long action or magnum cartridge. 3-4" shorter is not inherently less accurate and in fact may be more accurate despite what tradition tells you. Go for the shorty. IMHO

You won't lose as much as you think. My 18.5" .30-06 loses a mere 80 fps or so over my 22" barrelled rifle. It almost makes me wonder why someone would carry the longer gun. I don't think my target would know the difference and 80 fps won't make my trajectories much flatter.

Got one ordered. Hope to have it soon.
