I hunt with a Remington 7600P in .308. The barrel is 16.5 inches long. My usual load is a 170 cast bullet at 2,000 fps. It will kill anything that gets in it's way up to 200 yards, including a 506 lb feral pig that I killed two years ago.
If I were designing the gun from scratch, I would probable put an 18 inch barrel on it. But this is not a gun I shoot indoors or keep for defensive purposes.
The guns that I use for weekly range fun have 22-24 inch barrels.
