[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 104633, member: 12"] I think you problem will not be in the barrel per say but the action. That long a barrel in a short tenon 700 for instance is not good, wreaks havoc with bedding many times. Plus it will be unweildy as heck. Realistically I would think that you will find somewhere between 28-30" would be what works best. However, a lot will depend on what contour the barrel is. What is the mftr? Breach diameter? Length of the straight from breach to start of taper? Muzzle diameter? Blank weight? BH [/QUOTE]
