hi everyone , trying to decide pros & cons of a 16 or 20" barrel length,can't buy both,but can't decide which
one... thanks for your input.

Why not just get the 20" and have it cut down to 18"?

What are you going to use the gun for?

I would get 16" just because it is handier, and the ballistics difference, about 125-150 fps from what I measured, is not enough to matter for me in the case of .308 ammo.  I suppose there may be an accuracy advantage for the heavier longer barrel, but I did not buy mine to be a bullseye target gun or any sort of precision rifle.

The factory barrel length options for the PTRs are 16 inch and 18 inch, there's no 20 inch barrel available that I know of.  ARKAR
