Barrel length isnt all about weight, it's about handiness and balance. I ditched .223 in all my rifles rebuilt them in 6.5 Grendel for a variety of reason, none of which were for shooting 1k yards.

I do own a 20 inch gun, but it's a total pain to hunt with in the woods. So I have a 16 inch lightweight rifle I built just for hunting. Considering the furthest ethical shot I would consider taking on a whitetail with any caliber is 300 yards, I'm not handicapped at all by losing 4 inches. And when I'm crossing a patch of green briars you bet your ass that 4 inches makes a difference... whether you've got a "pair" or not.
