    Better barrel harmonics with a 20 inch bbl and really, beyond 22 inches is diminishing returns with that calibre. Good balance between performance and portability.

    How long is the barrel on a PGW Coyote?

    Pgw is more than 20 inches, but all I'm saying is if you're looking for an extreme long range rifle, 308 isn't the caliber of choice. for all intents and purposes, a 20 inch bbl will do anything you want it to without sacrificing portability out past distances most people can shoot.

    Just for point of fact...I can take a box of Federal Blue box 308-180 gr., out to 850 metres...Yes metres...all day long with a 16.5 inch barrel (not sure of your definition of extreme long range, however?)
    The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much it is whether we provide enough for those who have little.

    Well yes you can however, you will have more drop and drift with 16.5 compared to 24.

    The less drop and drift, the more likely to hit the intended point of aim.

    Nothing. I personally would have liked a 24" .308 barrel for a little more velocity and astestics.

    Is it possible to get the 6.5 in a 20 barrel? And is there any way to lighten it up from 11 lbs to 8 or 9 lbs?
