Also bear in mind regarding that magazine comparison test.
Quite a few manufacturers wouldn't participate as the sound measuring device(cant remember its name) wasn't a independent one.
The one supplied was from one of the actual brands in the test.
So I would discount that article largely due to those reasons.
I'd discuss you're plans for said rifle with the outfit you end up going with and they will recommend a barrel length etc based on calibre and how far you want to shoot to on animals etc
