[QUOTE="bookworm, post: 286999, member: 13840"] Well, I never thought my initial question would have sparked 7 pages of discussion. It was very informative to say the least - I learned a lot! I think the bottom line for me is that I will keep my 26" barrel and H-1000 powder for now. If I get the accuracy I need out of that combo that is worth more than the little bit of mobility I might gain from a shorter barrel. I wish I had the luxury of testing multiple barrel lengths with various powders to put some of these ideas through their paces. Sounds kinda fun. In the mean time, if anyone has first hand experience (good or bad) with the combination I originally asked about, I'd be interested in your thoughts. 300 win mag 20" - 24" barrel Slow powder (H-1000) 190gr match grade bullet [/QUOTE]
