[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 681508, member: 30902"] 2" of barrel is not going to make the sendero more cumbersome in the field than the 24" sporter. Generally though the heavier rifle with the longer barrel, all else being equal is going to be more accurate and give you higher velocities and thus more energy on target down range. That is why you will see very few of us carrying anything on a Long Range Hunt with shorter than a 26" bbl or less than an 8lbs rifle. You can get by with about anything out to 600yds, but from there on out life gets a lot more complicated. LR is simply a different game. [/QUOTE]
