Makes some sense as the person getting the 9" is NFA aware and will more likely be shooting subsonic with a can. The less informed masses buying the 16" are more likely to be buying this as a supersonic hunting option.

I am new to this cartridge but given its powder efficiency do you get meaningful velocity gain out of longer barrels?
