[QUOTE="xsn10s, post: 2813010, member: 95344"] I guess it depends on what you want to gain. Or how you want to configure your rifle. I'd say for that length I'd leave it a 30-06 unless you want slightly more velocity and add a can. But for more velocity gains I'd opt for a longer barrel, 26"-28". One of our members got 2800 fps with around a 200 gr bullet and a straight 30-06 28" barrel. At those lengths you get much better velocity with even a standard 30-06, a 30-06 AI should be more. Puts you in the 300 SAUM realm with more mag capacity. [/QUOTE]
