[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 978376, member: 22069"] Most factory rifles come with 24" barrels in magnum chamberings. You aren't going to see a measurable difference with a barrel that is less than 1/2" shorter than most other factory rifles. It's not worth sweating over. Yes you would gain a bit of velocity with a 26" barrel, but the difference isn't really enough to have much effect on downrange performance. Some chamberings are more sensitive to barrel length than others. The .264WM, for example, really needs at least 26" of barrel to get the most out of it. I don't believe the same to be true of the 7mm RM. [/QUOTE]
