Is a 24'' barrel too short for long range shooting?

[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 187302, member: 8843"] With the 300 win mag you will only loose about 75 maybe 100 fps depending on your load. Eight way the velocity loss will be minimal and it'll still be shoting alot faster than the 308 so the balistics will still be their. I can't thinkof one time that I ever shortened a barrel or knew anybody that had a barrel shortened "PROPERLY" that the gun wasen't more accurate than before , this is for a couple reason , (1) the shorter barrel is stiffer so it viberates a bit less (2) a properly cut barrel will have a better crown cut square to the bore generaly alot better than the factory. What the reason your wanting a ahorter barrel [/QUOTE]
