What caliber would perform best out of a 26" barrel? I don't necessarily mean which caliber is the most powerful, but instead which caliber achieves its best performance out of that particular barrel length. For instance, for the best velocity out of most .22LR cartridges, a barrel length of 18"-20" is usually recommended. I don't know about powder burn rates, but if someone wants to point me in the direction of reference material, that would also be appreciated.
