[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 2413095, member: 68875"] For Western hunting (which is where I hunt), I think of open flats, across canyons, to/from hills, and longer shots. That is typical "western" hunting to me. Glass them up, get into a shootable position, and then break out the packs with meat shelves. 26" with fast, flat, heavy for caliber bullets. While I have 20", 22", & 24" barreled rifles, those mule deer/pronghorn/elk rifles mainly wear 26", even a 28" on my .300RUM built specifically for long range elk.
