[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 132344, member: 8843"] with that case capacity I would think that anything over 26" would offer very little gain in velocity. I had a 22-250 Ai in a full bull barrel that was 29" finished I had cut 3" off the chamber end and rechambered with the same reamer and the accurate load was the same and the velocity was only about 20fps loss , granted this was a 55gr bullet with a healthy dose of Varget so a heavier bullet with slower powder might yield a differant outcome. But in my opppinion if your looking for a sporter weight gun thats not gonna see alot of time in a praire dog patch (I assume) then I'd go with a 26" but if it was a heavy gun I'd have a long shank heavy barrel so it could be setback a couple times.
