    Interesting video Austin,
    Were the Bore Diameters identical? That may account for the difference in velocity? 2 fireams made by 2 separate manufactures..
    I'd be interested in seeing the results from 2 identical rifles by the same manufacture, one with a 16" barrel and one with a 22 inch barrel.

      I have a few different Savage .22 long rifles with various barrel lengths I may test later. Different models, but the same manufacturer. The barrels would most likely have been all rifled on the same machines.

      Sounds great. Looking forward to seeing the results.

    You're not the first to post a video showing this. The Hide had a shortened Rossi rs22m chronographed against the standard length (16 vs 21). Same results. There's not enough powder to take advantage of the extra length. Drop below 30grain, and length might start benefit velocity again. I doubt the 25 grain stuff would cycle a semiauto very well though, so more than 16" on a semiauto is truly worthless.

      Thanks for the comment. I had never heard of The Hide, flipped over and looks like some good information.

      @@becausearkansas2491 Ballistics by the inch also shows most of the .22wmr's slowing down past 16-18 inches. The exception is the 25grn NTX. That will actually make use of a longer barrel.

    22 mag is overpriced I have never owned one for this very reason

      I like the cartridge and get more pleasure sending a 35 cent .22 magnum round down range than I do from firing 4 rounds of .22 long rifle. Spend your money on what you like, I will celebrate your thrift or eccentricity with you. I am not about to tell you how you should spend your money, it's not mine. Do as you will.
