[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 2442124, member: 1521"] No, a stiffer barrel whips around less distance at the muzzle. It's more forgiving in that a mis-timed load can still shoot 'ok'. But that's barrel tune. Powder tune can favor a longer barrel, depending on the cartridge & load. It's all a big balance, so it's in our best interests to steer clear of extremes, as they're harder to get in good balance (for hunting). [/QUOTE]
