[QUOTE="Dbltap, post: 1452445, member: 8957"] Cut off my Maverick 88 barrel myself. It's a vent rib, I cut it off at the next place the rib attached to the barrel past 18", just short of 18.5". Used a hacksaw and cleaned it up, square it off with a file. Be sure to get any burr out of the inside to make the bore smooth on the end. BTW, ATF measures length using a rod down the barrel to the breech face. I used a brass cleaning rod to measure. Patterned mine after and can keep all 9 00 buck pellets in a torso target up to 20 yards (farthest I tried on a freezing day). Slugs are good to this range also. #4s are all over at 10 yds, so they're out. [/QUOTE]
