Go 14.5"-16" there is no need for 18"in NZ. The old school theory of a softer shooting rifle length gas system that a 18"barrel would allow is largely mitigated by an adjustable gas system and a decent brake. The smaller barrel makes it quicker easier to navigate confined courses of fire and the drop in velocity is a non issue at the ranges we shoot. Likewise fixed rifle length stocks meh...I have a 18"barrel with 3"brake and a rifle length stock...and damn that musket is a pain sometimes around barricades, small ports etc Longer free float foreguards are nice especially if you are shooting off things like tank traps or carriage windows. Of course much depends on which discipline you are shooting and which division, which brake you can have , how many if any optics, caliber etc. Again old school theory when JP's were the only match ready kit found in NZ was that heavy barrels were king...there has been a sharp move away from that in recent years for quicker transitions etc Personally I find the ultra lights just too light and tend to stick with mid weights.

What kind of muzzle brakes are those? Never seen that design before. Are they a competition thing?

JP Recoil Eliminator...most definitely a competition thing.

@Towely @carlhurley

how are you guys finding the acogs for close/fast stuff ? does the limited eye relief not bother you ?

I have an off set red dot for the closer stuff, its in the pic but its a little dark.

Ive got the TA11 mounted, eye relief is good like a normal scope. Its the 4x acogs which have the bizzare eye box.

ebf find it a bit hard to focus only use it when most of the targets are longer range walkworth multi gun man on man prefer the trijicon mro red dot for every thing else out to 200 metres

I was told by our TO that his advice for doing what I wanted to do was to go for a 16" mid length.

The information above definitely seems to back that up :-)

i find short barrels better for most competitions in nz as none of the ranges are that long and are easier to get around barricades etc most of mine are 12.5 inch
