I've never had a 7-08 shorter than 14"(XP-100),nor longer than 26"(VLS). That being said,with lotsa 18,20,21,22,23 and 24's in the fray in said chambering,I'm happy performance wise at 21". Not that an 18" can't do nice thangs,they're just louder. Hint.

While these Fhuqktards muse "performance",nary a one stipulates the schit that fhuqking matters most,which is RPM/Throat Geometry/COAL. Hint.

I'll happily gun a "lowly" 21-incher wearing 8" RPM,with .796 BC 180 ELD's,at a 2.950" Square Smooch. Hint.

Thank me later.

Just saying.
