[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2504103, member: 15054"] I considered the extra muzzle jump with the lighter barrel.. This barrel is .840" now at the muzzle and will be .860" when cut to 20.5" give or take a little. It should still jump less and recoil less than my skinny 22" barrel 30-06 and i have no issues with that and a quick follow up shot. I had 2 deer running at me with that 30-06 rifle in hand,, busted the doe in the chest at 45 yards and the buck at 100 yards jumping and running sideways to me got one through the lungs less than 5 seconds later. Made for a short gun season. I thought about ordering a barrel but this one still needs some cut off of it due to the uneven bullet wear at the last .150" of the muzzle. [/QUOTE]
