22LR rifle barrel. Generally speaking the longer the barrel the more accurate and perhaps the faster velocity right? I guess the reason is the gas gets to build up more pressure etc.
Anyway,
Question#1 How long of a barrel is considered to long? Could one have a 4 foot barrel and it would help with velocity?
Question #2 How long of a barrel before it loses velocity from friction of rifling?
Question #3 How long of a barrel before the projectile never even clears the barrel because it's just to long?
Yeah I'm pretty bored today.
