[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 23747, member: 8947"] Rule of thumb is a loss of 25 to 35fps for every inch of barrel loss. Browning has a 23" barrel and I think that Savage has a 11F that has a 24", Win in 24". Personally, I would go for the 23 to 24" barrel because if I am shooting a WSM, I want WSM performance. If I really want a shorter barrel, I will shoot a 308 or '06 instead. Why put up with recoil and noise when there is little difference in performance? If he is going into tactical work, why not get a 308? That will be what is issued and used most often. There are a few very nice Tactical models made by savage that should also shoot well. Good luck... Jerry [/QUOTE]
