Has anyone tried a very long (~34") barrel in the 6BRX?
I normally use 32" inch barrels, but with my new INCH, with the action further back compared to the trigger, the breech is closer to me, so the sight radius is a bit shorter than my set up with 32" barrels and Rem-clone actions. So, I got to thinking that a 34" barrel would get me back to my normal sight radius without using a bloop tube--and if the BRX can use the extra barrel length, I could get to 3050ish fps without working the brass as much.
So, is the long barrel crazy? Good idea? Worked before?
