You don't give up much from 24" to 20", especially for a field rifle IMO. I've had a 20" for quite a while and it's been about all I want to carry on long stalks. 800 yds is no problem, 1000 yds is on the edge and weather conditions have a big effect on how it performs. Now that I have a .30 cal suppressor I built a 12" for field use and the 20" is mainly used for range play and the rare occasion when I hunt from a stand. I do have plans to eventually build a 24" but it will only be a range toy.
