Nice listen. Thanks for posting.
Can’t wait to see what the price point on the ph3 is going to be. Just about every rifle that I’ve seen that’s been good quality and switch Barrel has been major expensive. Also very curious to see what they’re going to do in terms of upgrading the element and slam lines as he mentioned in the podcast.
In terms of the 22 versus 24 inch barrel for a 6.5 prc. Pure personal opinion of course. That much of a barrel difference really is not going to make a huge performance difference at all. Maybe 50 feet per second. I also don’t really know of a situation where shaving 2 inches off is going to make that big of an improvement either. We do hunt a lot around here out of box blinds, and having a shorter Barrel comes in handy. But I haven’t seen the situation where 2 in would take a rifle from manageable to unmanageable.
Of course your specific situation may be quite different and if that 2 in is that important then go for it. Otherwise I’d say it’s a wash. That conversation gets a lot more interesting when you’re talking about much bigger changes such as 18 in versus 24 in.
