[QUOTE="Top Cat, post: 371920, member: 4532"] A 20" barrel will give acceptable velocity and is handy, but would be more of a match with a trim rifle as well. The build you are planning is on the heavy end, especially with the USO, so adding a few inches of barrel would not add much weight or take much away from the overall feel of the build. So it depends on range...longer range...longer barrel. 22" works well for a 243 but is still a little short to wring out all the round can do. TC [/QUOTE]
