So I am wondering what y'all can tell me about how shortening the barrel of a rifle impacts the velocity and energy of the round, as well as accuracy. And for sake of discussion we will keep this close: under 100 yards. And I'm wondering about the 223/5.56 vs other rounds.
What I am basically wondering: is there a round that "outperforms" the .223 (more fps delivered accurately...just has advantages) within the range discussed? Not really wondering about abilities beyond 100. Just inside. I love learning about the finer points of ballistics inside little boxes like this.
