[QUOTE="imyourhuckleberry, post: 2095617, member: 18206"] The reason for my comment was that I love 30.06 and had a 28" barrel light contour for hunting years ago when I was still wet behind the ears. I learned the hard way about harmonics when I missed a shot on a 10 point buck. The 7mm magnum is a great round and depending on your load that round will maintain supersonic velocity up to 1500 meters. The shorter barrel is an accurate barrel used for hunting because it cuts down on weight but accuracy may falter with the long barrel you want. Maybe a heavy shorter would be more ideal as 27" is still very long. Good luck on your endeavor. [/QUOTE]
