[QUOTE="blackco, post: 165068, member: 7356"] Just my 2-cents worth...I am in the process of an almost identical build, mine is for hunting only though and will be shooting bullets 200-220grs, and after some discussion with my smith decided a 26" was best. Heavier bullets are somewhat slower therefore in the barrel longer, thus more time for the powder to burn. What I would get wouldn't outweigh the drawbacks of a longer barrel. This is my first build so my inexperience may be glaring but that was my decision. [/QUOTE]
