I honestly don't think you need more than 22" for a target gun, but if you were to go longer than 24", I would look into an extended-length gas system to balance out your dwell time. Either way, make absolutely sure you get an adjustable gas block so you can tune your system. If you can get the Berger 130gr VLD's going 2500fps, you'll have an 800yd gun easy, with 1000yd+ on mild or no-wind days. 600yds isn't much of a challenge with the 123gr Lapua and AMAX, unless the wind gets crazy.

What optics and mount are you looking at?
