Hi all, finally getting around to building a 450 Bushmaster upper for one of my SBRs, and wondering what the shortest barrel anyone here has used successfully. Ideal for me would be ~9”, but think I’ll lose too much velocity even for this upper’s intended purpose of hogs and deer under 100 yards...likely under 80 yards for most shots here in Texas hill country/brush.
Will only use this with my Bowers 458 vers can... damn near a foot long on its own.
Don’t want this to turn into a 450 vs 458 vs 50 Beowolf thread ... I shoot a lot of .45 ACP and reload/buy bullets in bulk so I’m set on this caliber for this particular upper.
Thanks in advance...
