rep70 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 M193 should be right there. 3130 out of a 16" and 3070 out of a 14.5". i figured I would be around 3040-3050 fps Never guess always chrono. I bet you will get more like 2700 fps but who knows until you chrono. pat I have a chrono, the gun is being coated right now, so haven't shot over it yet I betting much lower then 3040-3050, but will be interested to see the results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3guns Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 My 10" shorty with a 1:7 twist has an average of 2650 on a certain lot of M193. The average M193 lot shoots at around 2550. Yes I used A chrono. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael1778 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 (edited) Had this upper built yesterday. It was a pre-existing competition lower. Only took me about 2 weeks to select and obtain all upper parts. 18" Criterion hybrid profile. Edited August 10, 2013 by michael1778 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sterling White Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 After reading a recent article in 3gun magazine, I was curious how many people are shortening the length of their gamer gun? I have an 18" setup and don't plan to change. However, the idea of quick, hosing stages and being able to throw my gun side to side is compelling. Anyone else read the same article and plan to make changes? Traditions are typically challenged with the latest craze! I find that it usually gets costly in a hurry when chasing the latest trends.

CJW Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I plan on sticking with my 18" rifle-length gas gun for most things but I am building out a pinned 14.5" mid-length because (1) I want to and (2) I shoot a few places that never have shots past 200yards. I'll give the shorty a try at matches like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmd6x Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I've got a 14.5" Noveske with a fixed pinned surefire brake on it. I didn't buy it for 3 gun, but that's what I use it for now, and I really like it. The Leupold Mark 6 1x6 makes a much bigger difference than running a 20" barrel with cheap glass, IMHO.

JohnLTD Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I want to build a short upper just for berm distance 3 gun matches. I don't think it will be softer but I could make it really light and take some wear and tear off of the really expensive barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCO Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I want to build a short upper just for berm distance 3 gun matches. I don't think it will be softer but I could make it really light and take some wear and tear off of the really expensive barrel. Pretty much what I did. Ran it at Crimson Trace. But, it is still very soft recoiling the way I set it up. It doubles almost like my 18, but 7 pounds with light, optic and the double laser make it fast.

C130Mech Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 For my first build I went with a 16" RRA Heavy Barrel 1:9, mid length gas. Shoots 1moa @ 100yards but still is quick for the close hoser targets. About to upgrade from a birdcage to a PWS muzzle brake I just picked at a prize table. Hope it helps with double taps.
