[QUOTE="snox801, post: 1194229, member: 54383"] I think you are already in the know. .243 does like the longer barrel. Some manufacturers use 22" but to me that means very little as they also sell 22-24" .257 Roy. When you short barrel them they don't perform the way they. Should. If it where me I would use a min 22" leaning to 24"-26" if length doesn't bother you for you hunting situation. If the length is a problem maybe look at the 6.5 creed. It doesn't lose much with a short tube. It very close to the .243 in balistics also. Just a thought. [/QUOTE]
