I like the 20 - 22” lengths on my shorter barrel bolt rifles. Though probably could learn to like an 18”.
Lever rifles, most of mine are 20”. Though, I must admit to liking the pistol cartridges with 16” barrels.
A pump rifle, I could do 18” without issue.
Mostly depends on the intended use as to my preference.
