Default RE: heavy barrel Vs. standard

Unless your gonna be shooting a ton of rounds at one sitting or do a lot of prairie dog shooting, go with the standard barrel.If you are strictly a coyote and deer hunter I'd for surely go with the standard.

My first coyote gun was a heavy barrel. I listened to all the hype about the accuracy benefits and I thought it looked cool. I wish I would have took the advice offered by a friend that said I would regret it. After a year I had enough of lugging that thing around and sold it for a standard barreled gun. The standard barrel I got now is actually more accurate than the heavy barrel I had. There really are no benefits to using a heavy barrel when it comes to real hunting situations, except for prairie dogs.
