[QUOTE="LongBomber, post: 458937, member: 14435"] I have a 30" barreled plus 2 1/2" braked edge AI. I would stay with a 27 - 28" barrel and a 2" brake just so you can use a standard case without needing something special. Most dragbags will also not accept a rifle with a 30" barrel and 2" brake. Longer cases and bags are available but the price goes up. And there is no real advantage to the extra 2" of barrel. I found my best vertical disp with berger hybrids at 2930fps. I have pushed the 300mk up to 3060fps with 96gr of H1000 (old H1000), but groups were best at about 2950fps. My barrel seems a little fast, but my speeds have been chronied and confirmed with drops out to 1000. [/QUOTE]
