[QUOTE="Hespco, post: 1648604, member: 109476"] A 264 shines with a 26" bbl. Well balanced. I get around 3440 with Barnes 120gr TSX & 3200+ fps with the 140gr bullets. You can of course go with a 24" Bbl for about 70 fps less. Depends where you plan to hunt . 70 fps less is not going to make a real difference in the field but may be an emotional difference. I have a Rem 700 264 I bought in 1964, 23.5" bbl , A Ruger Hawkeye 24", & two Win's with 26" Bbl. I have taken deer & elk with all of them. Have not really seen a difference in the field , but emotionally I like the 26". [/QUOTE]
