[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1890021, member: 38048"] I personally shoot the Creed for long range target shooting and it's a great cartridge. The 24 inch would be preferable to me but since your going to put a muffler on it I would do the 20. If you load rl26 powder you can really up the speed. 2850 from the 20 inch would be no problem and easily reach your required energy. Factory loads are going to be a tough one with the 20 inch barrel. Berger makes a factory load 140 hybrid that is 150 fps faster than the Hornady loads. Plus you get all that fine brass to reload with. The Berger load does 2840 from my 22 inch barrel. Should be close to 2800 from the 20. Enjoy the cool-aid it's good. Shep [/QUOTE]
