Regarding the "harmonics" of a barrel. Forget about adding some sort of mechanical "tuner". Tuning is a function done through load development, pure and simple.

How well do you shoot out to 500yards? If your not anygood at that distance then you will suck at 1000yards.
Kludge,I can't imagine hunting of any kind with a bull barrel. And I still think something in 6.5 to 7mm is best for you intended puposes with a twist that will stabilize the heaviest bullets.
Kludge,
These are tac rifles, not bench rest rifles.
7.5 pounds is not heavy for most folks I know. I can carry all day w/o any problems. I do carry double strap which is much better for your spine for anything you carry anyway. The shorter barrels eliminate weight while group a tad better. Pick up one and then let me know what you think.
Cheers,

Commonly available ammo is a big plus, as I've yet to get into reloading and wouldn't want my rifle choice to be contingent on starting into that right off the bat.
