    I have wondered, while reading this thread and learning, what the most common .223 barrel lengths in use are. There is always the trend/desire for a compact bush gun, but seems a lot of you blokes are regularly making shots in the 180-300+ range. Longer is always better, (so they say) but a man does ponder these things.
    "O Great Guru what projectile should I use in my .308?" To which the guru replied, "It doesn't matter."
