If you make the barrel long enough, it will act as a suppressor. There was an article from Guns&Ammo like 20 years ago about some dude that made an like a 6 ft long barrel for his 12 ga pump action and it made it completely silent. Didn't have to register it either. 🙂

[@blackopsman_21]

I've actually tried this before, Hastings use to sell a 32" barrel extension that screws into your choke threads. I already had a 32" barrel on the gun, making it 64" total in length. The noise was maybe 20% reduced, the extra weight and length made the gun recoil less, and the direction was straight into your shoulder rather than rotating upwards. The patern at 25yds was about the same as a full choke with a very center heavy shot column. The biggest issue is that the threads on my barrel weren't cut perfectly concentric to the bore, so the extension actually wasn't perfectly in line with the barrel, making it hard to hit any clays.

[@timothyprice9064]

Many guys made barrels like that for Turkey Shoots. I don't even hear about Turkey Shoots these days. I'm almost sure they still have them somewhere.

[@patrickhutchings6926]

As a hand loader I'm very surprised that you gained that much velocity with that barrel. I thought you would start to lose velocity after a certain point due to bullet drag. Fascinating.

[@fajile5109]

Goes to show from what i read it said bullet drag would out weigh velocity gain after 26-28 inches

[@herrcobblermachen]

It may have started to lose velocity already- just not compared to the 16". Had it been a 30" barrel maybe it would have been faster. What I was always cautioned with long barreled ARs was that the action would unlock early, and that you'd need the +2 gas system to offset that, etc. I couldnt see definitively here, but the brass flying out didnt particularly look scorched to me. I didn't experience any issues running a 28" 6.5g with a carbine buffer and rifle length gas system *shrug* didnt measure my gas port hole size. Now the big question for us handloaders is- whats the slowest burning powder for 223 to get the most out of that thang ;)

[@hibahprice6887]

are you joking? If this were the case, gases and flames would not fly out of the barrel, the pressure does not go anywhere, the volume of gases that fill the barrel is important, and it will be enough for 27 inches

I'd push that out to at least 600 meters since a standard M16A2 can reach out to 500 meters/yards with no problem. In fact, in the Marine Corps, our rifle qualification started at 200 yards, then went to 300, and then 500. But, as I said in the beginning, this was with an M16 and not an M4, I think M4s have a harder time reaching out to 500 yards or more.

[@JMECK]

@Riceball01 never had an issue with table 1 or 2 with my m4. Definitely preferred the m16 for table 1. How ever I'm suggesting 500 for Scott bc finding ranges that accommodate further then 500 is already difficult. Plus we don't really know how Scott really handles ranged shots as of yet, with his current videos.

ever since i saw really long pistol barrels I've always wanted a comically long ar15 barrel, a dream come true.

[@GeorgeCowsert]

Fun fact: the AR15 was specifically developed around 20" barrels after testing with the then brand new 5.56 caliber revealed some interesting data. At around 20 inches of barrel length, the ammo they were using had the velocity needed to create significant shockwaves in flesh; shockwaves that would require highly trained medics to deal with, all with a smaller entrance point. In some tests, the flesh would flex in a way where it would suck in air and compress it to the point of causing it to ignite, triggering a small explosion. So while the 16 and later 14 inch barrels would become the most prevalent barrel lengths for the AR15, be aware that its 20 inch option was specifically beloved by Eugene Stoner due to its lethality.

[@bluecreature39]

The dwell time on that barrel must be crazy there is like 24" of barrel after the gas block. It doesnt seem over gassed though, the ejection pattern was pretty normal. Who ever made that barrel and gas block did a good job tuning it I guess, pretty cool.

for this to really improve accuracy you'd have to move the front sight post further down the barrel. if you're using the same sight radius as a 16 inch AR, it'll have the same sight picture as a 16 inch AR

As far as I know each round has an optimal barrel length based on the powder load.

@@nymeriagloves3957 But it's on case capacity and a 5.56 is much smaller than a 308 case ( 55 grain vs 150 grain bullets)

[@nymeriagloves3957]

@@sirfrydryk360 ya 308 has roughly 75% more powder to make pressure, but also 75% more barrel volume to lower the pressure. 308 isnt an "overbore" or a magnum by comparison at all.

I knew the velocity would increase, but that was insane! Way more than I was expecting.

[@tbrowniscool]

There's a chance it would go a bit faster with a few inches off the barrel. Alot of friction in a 3 feet barrel for a 5.56

The sight of those ammo shells ejecting in slo mo is AWESOME!!!!!

[@jefferyr.powell5214]

would be interesting to see the reaction at the range when you showed up with something like that

[@ImNoBSING]

The average MV gain per barrel length is 21fps/in. This shows 24. So with limited MV readings we can probably say that this was well within expectations.

[@ImNoBSING]

Still, a good video of course! :)

[@fortnite.burger]

@@ImNoBSING It's nonlinear. For example, going from 10-12 inches increases the velocity by about 150 fps. Going from 34-36 inches, would likely only increase the velocity by about 5-10 fps.

[@ImNoBSING]

It is linear usually within 16 to 30 inches. I agree that below 16 the grow is more pronounced and above 30 less.

[@fortnite.burger]

@@ImNoBSING Agreed

[@ImNoBSING]

However, some barrels are just faster by default based on chamber profile, inside diameter and surface roughness

[@dukemeiser19]

Man pulled up with an IRL Warzone gun

[@Mr.Mister001]

Another channel did something similar to this with a 60 inch barrel. He would shoot, record the speed, then cut off a few inches of the barrel and repeat. It wasn't shouldered though due to the barrel drooping. Very interesting results though. Cabbage armor is real!

Thank you Scott for that epic intro 😂 I needed that laugh today

[@mayssm]

4:42...I think that's a good demonstration to how damaging a gun like that is when it actually hits a human. It exploded the cinderblock just from the energy transferred from the gel, without even touching the cinderblock.

[@shyneguy]

You should absolutely do a "vibe check" video with it and other length AR15 barrels on steel and possibly ceramic plates. throw in some different ammo types too

[@clark5184]

it's downright criminal that you didn't use the "compensating" shirt for this

[@Hammerstrike81]

Seemed like the felt recoil was a lot less with the long barrel... but much harder to hold on target. Lots more velocity, too. Very informative~!

[@John-ir2zf]

Probably easier to keep on target actually. The extra weight up front causes less flip up of the muzzle.

[@csjrogerson2377]

Recoil will be reduced in proportion to the increase in mass caused by the longer barrel, but as the recoil is only 4 ftlbs anyway, a doubling of the mass will only give a 2 ftLbs reduction.

[@Mc-lv3rq]

Judy chopped that cinderblock,,,,ANDDDDDD Destroyed it!!!! Hahahahaaaa

[@Big88Country]

AWESOME!! I would like to have seen the ballistics of the 36" barrel compared to the 20 inch barrel. You know, just to see if the 36" barrel is better for sniper training!
