Does the length and diameter of the barrel effect the size of the load!

Default Loads

Yes, he says to use Fiocchi loads to get good cycling; also to get good cycling to shoot with the stock attached. I fired 7 rounds before returning home. Noticed a small crack in the stock after the firing and returning home. Waiting to hear if the crack could be a stress fracture. Don't know of what to think of the crack. Didn't beat on it with a hammer - not at those prices, I assure you.

My way of thinking (and I am no engineer) is that if energy needs to be transferred to the stock, for good action, could the energy be excessive and show up in a piece of weak wood in the stock??

Awaiting word from Eugene.
It makes sense that longer barrels need more thrust to get velocity.
