[QUOTE="338Shooter, post: 1606658, member: 3449"] I would shorten it to 18" if it were mine. I'd look at paying about $75 to have the barrel chopped, threaded, and recrowned. Maybe a small shop fee to disassemble and reassemble the upper if you can't do it yourself. ;) I know a guy that does good work close to Yukon too. :D Unless you just like to chase the velocity numbers or are trying to shoot it close to the limits of the round you won't miss the extra length at all. Lower the velocity some, and you just change your dope. No big deal. [/QUOTE]
