Any Benefit over 16"??????

Just finished threading and chambering my new Broughten 1x<8" twist barrel. Going into a Tikka M595 action. 30-221 ECT reamer.
Now I need to figure out how long to make it.
Is there any benefit to having a length longer than 16-17"?????
This will be shooting subsonic 99% of the time with a suppressor.

My take off barrel is a Lilja 1x8" approximately 17" and threaded 5/8-24. So if anyones interested in a 30-221 barrel for a M595 action........
Not sure if the barrel threads and headspace are the same on the new T3 actions.
