Most likely it is 24" unless it is the new Long Range Hunter. It will loose about 50 FPS on average to a 26" barrel.

If you are shooting long range and pushing the limit the 7mms effective range it is something to consider. Under 500 yards it is a non issue.

The website says the 111 7mm Rem Mag has a 24" barrel.

The 111 Long Hunter 7mm Rem Mag has a 26" barrel with a muzzle brake, fluted barrel, and adjustable comb.
