I'm picking up a Tikka T3X Lite in 6.5 Creedmoor, but wanted to hear everyone's thoughts on the barrel lengths right now. If I decide to go with stainless, the longer 24.3" barrel lenght seems much more common up here right now.
How does it handle? Worth having, or more hinderance? I'm sure its quite subjective but happy to hear from all points of view.
I have a blued 24" T3X and have enjoyed it alot. I'm not much of a stand hunter, and I've never thought the 24" to be a hinderance. It's a very mild kicker as well. Like all Tikkas.....extremely easy to find accuracy. I feel the same about my T3 22" 7mm08. Never really notice the difference between them.
