[QUOTE="dxlbaile, post: 2158288, member: 91579"] Straight up if you are going to use a brake, I wouldn't go any longer than 26" It isn't handy at all to have too much barrel.. The few feet per second you gain is not worth it in my opinion. I have a 27.5 28 nosler and I will never do that again.. Hard to get in a scabbard.. Hard to get in a back pack. Too Long for most soft cases out there.. Just dang right too long.. I don't hunt from a truck so, you have to consider your use.. If your just riding around truck hunting get a 30" ha ha.. 24-26 is perfect for all the hunting I do.. I never shoot beyond 1200 yards with these hunting rifles so no need for a real long barrel.. "To each his own though." Again I say, never again on a hunting rig... [/QUOTE]
