[QUOTE="Pro2A, post: 1957911, member: 17889"] In similar profiles, shorter barrels are typically also stiffer with lower harmonics and can offer improved accuracy as such. Todd Hodnett, lead lobber par excellence, only shoots 16-18" barrels in 308W for that reason. Todd prefers to dial minimally more lob due to lower velocity rather than deal with greater inconsistency in longer barrels. Probably not a big issue at the ranges noted for minute-of-elk hunting application. [/QUOTE]
