The F34 contour is a magnum(ish) contour, but they come 24" long and there isn't any reason to leave them at 24" if you want 'em a little lighter and can tolerate a little less speed.
I have an F34 barrel in 260 that has been cut back to 20" and installed on an Interarms Mark X action with a mannlicher style stock. I also have another F34 barrel in 260 that has been installed on an Interarms Mark X action with a Remington 798 laminated stock. This 2nd rifle is HEAVIER and a little LONGER than I would prefer, but it sure does shoot good groups and I have other lighter 260 to use if the need should arise.
