I'm wanting something that is always going to be more accurate than I am so that I can learn to shoot well. At least that's my logic. With that thought process I figured the longer the barrel, the better so I was looking at either the Hunter model or the Competition model which are both 7" barrels from my understanding. I was quoted $525 at our local gun shop for either of them (maybe a little cheaper for the Competition model but he did not specify).

Is getting a longer barrel to develop better shooting habits a good idea? Also is that price way out of line for that model? Thanks.
