Not sure there is enough difference in the 2 but to me (a hunter) longer is better My 6arc is a 24" barrel
But I am more concerned about the 1-8" than length . I have 1-7.5 and there are some bullets that require a faster twist than I have.
Whatever you get let us know how you like it.
I am thinking of a Howa barreled action to build another 6 arc but I just want the action I would put a custom barrel on it
I'm planning on buying the Howa mini barralled action in 6arc. Your post made me realize I hadn't checked on the twist rate of their barrel. I just called Brownells and they say it is 7.5?  What bullets are you using that don't stabilize with the 7.5 twist?
On the Howa web site every single 6arc has a 1-8 twist but they do not list for the barreled actions . They might put a different barrel on the bare action I would check with some on here that have already bought or check with Howa, just to be sure. But I haven't bought one yet

I was just on with Ken at brownel's he said 1-8  . for me I want a 1-7.5  but that's just me
