I'm sure my opinion will depart with some but IMHO, with these fast powders that we use, you'd cover the most bases with a carbine length. If you only intend to shoot 300 grainers and up, then maybe mid-length.

Can you expand on that? What do you mean by most bases? I plan on using either factory Hornady black or reload some 200-275xpb. Right now I have a Tromix barrel with a mid length gas port and it runs the 250gn factory stuff fine. I'm looking at getting a new barrel and wanted to make sure I did my homework. Thanks for all the help!
