243 barrel

[utica ny]

thinking about a new coyote gun, is there going to be a big difference between a 20" inch barrel and a 22" inch barrel, pro's and con's???

I don't think you can tell the difference in 2 inch barrels. Maybe 40
 to 50 fps volcity maybe. Marv.

The 20" barrel is the superlight and I think the barrel is thinner, that may be a plus or minus. I've heard some say the group grows fast with these barrels but then how often are you going to heat up the barrel coyote hunting.
If you want to do much bench shooting you might want the heavier barrel. If you're just trying to save weight I've never really thought my 22" synthetic handi was very heavy.
