So it sounds like 9.5” in x39 is money with the RA barrel availabilty? Maybe lobbing shots at 250/300 yards but completely effective within 200 yrds?

@Pop quiz I only recently got my 9.5” x39 barrel and have not had much outdoor range time with it, so I cannot speak to the distances. I’m looking forward to giving it a workout all summer.

If you want steel case like 8m3 or SSTs to expand, min. 12." 154gr sp will not expand under 16"
If you have a can and just want a blaster, 9.5 is ok. It'll cycle the subsonic steel case on setting 7 (the 200gr stuff that isn't supposed to cycle semi auto). If you don't have a can, the muzzle blast is kind of ridiculous.
