[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 179294, member: 313"] I'll second what James has said. Looonger barrels have nothing to do with accuracy. If anything, increasing the length of a barrel in any given contour makes it more flexible. The most accurate barrels are normally short and fat, which equates to STIFF. Longer barrels are most beneficial for their higher velocity potential. They may also produce less muzzle blast depending on cartridge & load. [/QUOTE]
