[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2240804, member: 101791"] You may want to get it longer. That will allow for the barrel to be rechamber, and muzzle to be shorten again for it's second life. The lands will hold far longer than the muzzle and chamber will. So by adding a couple of inches longer to start with. So a 30" would do the trick. It's all depends on how long you are planning to use the rifle. You will adding weight to the rifle. It's all depends on what it's being used for. The AI add to velocity the 06 will push the round down the tube. You may want to look at the twist, and speed it up some too. I have a wildcat coming out and I got it in a 32" bartliein barrel. The Smith that building my rifle cuts off 2" at the muzzle to start with. [/QUOTE]
