Tikka T3x ACE target vs Game

Hi guys,
Looking to pick up one of the new Tikka T3x rifles in 6.5 CM. I like the ACE Game because it comes with the single stage trigger (which i prefer) and fluted barrel (which, I admit, I'm a sucker for). But the game has a 20" barrel that's a little bit thinner. If i go with the game over the target, am i giving up anything? Is the Target going to be more accurate? Is there any difference that I'm not taking into account?

Thanks in advance!
 
For what purpose, hunting, competition, plinking? The other difference is the magazine well, the Target uses the CTR magazines vs factory plastic in the Game. The CTR mags are great, but you're limited to short action cartridges. The chassis is so heavy you're not going to really notice the difference from fluting.
