[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 926272, member: 11717"] I would use as long a barrel as I could live with, depending what kind of shooting/hunting I was doing. That's to get the extra 50 fps or so with a couple more inches of tube. If velocity is not a high priority, a 24" barrel is easier to hunt with for sure. Longer barrels are also more susceptible to whip and considering a heavier contour (which would add weight) is something to think about. I found RL17 to produce very good velocity with 210 Bergers in my 300 WSM. [/QUOTE]
