[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1037358, member: 12995"] 28-30" is ideal, but 26" works fine on both of mine. The STW can be 250+ fps faster than the 7mmRM with the same bullet. If a 250+ fps MV increase is the proper "oomph increase" you are looking for over the 7mmRM, then go for the STW. I am a firm believer that any 7mm beyond the STW sized case has too many diminishing returns... Crappy accurate barrel life, more powder for the same velocities, more expensive brass. Also, 8mm RemMag brass can be found at Midway right now... Cheaper than STW brass and to make STW brass out of it, you just have to run it through a 7mm STW FL sizing die once, then when you shoot them they will form out properly.
