2" barrel difference?

do you guys think there will be a performance difference between the 24" MXLR and the 22" MX?

Im thinking about trading my MXLR for an MX when i send me gun back to Marlin due to the problems im having. Keep in mind i HIGHLY dought ill ever shoot past 200 yards. For a few reasons

Dig through this section. I seem to remember someone only saw a 50-75 fps total change in muzzle velocity with the MX when they ran one through a chrono.

There wouldn't be a noticable dif at that distance, I just like the all weather stainless qualities over the blue.

i also read some where the mxlr had a 1:9 twist compared to the 1:10 twist in the mx because the 1:9 twist had tighter groupes.
