[QUOTE="dig, post: 517270, member: 26939"] There is a lot of mis-truth about barrel length and velocity. There is a point of diminishing returns of course especially for cartridges like the .308. With every load I have created or factory purchase loads you will gain an increase in velocity with a 26 inch barrel over a 20 inch in this cartridge. I have Remy .308s in 20 and 26 my 26 inch consistently runs 160 to 180 fps faster same load (168 SMK), not as much as one would expect but an improvement none the less. That improvement counts. Any of the Remy's or as suggested a Savage with the H S stock would be a great platform, you may need to do little to nothing. [/QUOTE]
