Welcome, I have shot a lot of varmint barrels off of benchs,and prairie dogging, and think they have a advantage over sporter weight, where they don't have to be carried alot. I have a 204vlp single shot and thought it was the most accurate I own but is heavy, so I built a Stevens with a 204 sporter barrel to be able to carry for a walking rifle, surprise! the light one is within a quarter inch as accurate as the heavy barrel and 1/2 inch when I do my part. Hope this helps as each rifle is different.
