I did this exact same thing a number of years ago. And don't know for the life of me why I moved it other than I found a steal on a 700KS in 35 Whelen. A little trimmer and lighter was my reasoning. I've long been puzzled at why Remington offers it in a 1:16 twist, but I've yet to find a bullet weight that won't shoot accurately.

I'm for the 22" pipe and could easily see a 21"......Don't really see the need for a 35 Whelen with a 24" tube.
