[QUOTE="Stillhunter, post: 1453729, member: 4765"] The velocity loss shouldn't be significant. What I want to know is how much worse was the muzzle blast from the 16inch barrel? When Col. Cooper was working up the Scout rifle concept 18 or 19 inches was deemed to be about ideal. I wish i wish Ruger had gone along with that recommendation myself. I'm a beleiver in the Scout Rifle concept myself. I'm interested in Ruger's attempt at a Scout mainly the magazine issue and the 16inch barrel give me pause. I'm waiting to see what the availability and cost of the mags ends up being before jumping on one. I'm also wondering if it will possible to swap in a standard Ruger hinged floorplate mag on this thing as I'd much prefer it that way. [/QUOTE]
