I listened to most of that podcast but didn't hear anything new, however I am not of the extreme long range hunting with supresssors or muzzle brake school I've thought .
I also found that there is a point of no return when it comes to short barrels .
The 16.5" barrel on my Highwall did not balance well at all .
