looking on info on the ruger compacts..

never owned a ruger before. the action n the stainless laminated stock was kinda rough due to the bolt rubbing against the reciever. tried 4 diiferant types. 308win,7mm-08rem,243win,and 260rem. both seemed the same.
was looking at one in 260rem but with the 16" barrel on it would it affect accuracy and maybe heat up due to the small light barrel?
