This will result in less bullet drop after 250 yards out. Once the bullet gets out to 600 yards the drop difference might be 4 inches. At 300 yards its about a 2 inch difference. There's really no reason to go longer than 18 inches. The gas system I think most will agree on, 16 = midlength, 18 = rifle length.</blockquote>
