Assuming this is for a tactical comp rifle to do UKD shooting. I've searched and seen this discussed as a part of other things but not as a discussion of what length.
I get the general impression that the 308 guys like shorter tubes and that the performance/MV sacrifice isn't that much for them. I'm sure most 308 guys would probably say 20". It also seems to me that most of the purpose built toys are .243, .260, or maybe 708s (at least that's what the posts seem to say. I'm collecting parts with the intent of building a 708 to play with and I'm about to order a fluted barrel and that got me thinking, 22/24/26?
I understand that like a lot of competition setups there is some compromise between maneuverability and MV to give room for error, the point is to see what people are running today.
What length, not counting any muzzle brake or can.
