Gun and gear reviews Advice- barrel length.

Hi I have 2 guns in my wish list MRA renegade5.56 and a 357 lever I just cant decide on a barrel length!
Im leaning towards renegade 12" and lever 16" Whats your opinion ? I dont hunt, just target, fun shooting. I know longer is better but I just dont wanna carry a really long rifle. Thx

18" 300 blkout is the only one I saw any stock of on all platforms I could find

I ask the barrel question for the mra and had people that know more than me say 16" for 223 is better to get the most out of the ballistics of the round.
As for the 357. That's where I'd look at the 12. For a plinker. 16 if for hunting
