[QUOTE="7mm Eclipse, post: 255546, member: 14995"] Ol' Mike, Thanks for the response and info. Does increasing the barrel length to 28" give 1000 yard accuracy improvement over a 26" barrel that justify the inconvience of the additional length while hunting? Muzzle brake or no muzzle brake? Are there any improvements that have the gunsmith make to the bolt, action or bedding that should be considered when changing a barrel? Thanks again. I know y'all's shots are 1000+ yards frequently. Here in Georgia the average shot at a Whitetail is 75 yards. The longer shots, 300 to 400 yds, are over harvested corn and soybean fields or in pulp wood cleared hardwoods. I am really looking forward to shooting at 1000y. Camp Perry is about 1.5 hours south of here. Thanks for the welcome to the forum. There is a lot of great information and marksmen with excellent experience that we newbies can learn from. Great Site!! Mike [/QUOTE]
