[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1712557, member: 11960"] The 7-08 (or AI version) isn’t “better” in a short barrel than a 280 (or AI version). The 280ai will have close to a 100+ fps advantage over the 7-08ai with the same length barrel regardless of how long that barrel is. As far as the 20” barrel being more maneuverable, that just depends on where and how you hunt. I hunt some areas where even a 20” barrel feels too long. The trick is to find a combo that gives you a compact rifle, but still allow for good 5-600 yard performance on critters. [/QUOTE]
