[QUOTE="Rob72, post: 1216807, member: 707"] Ideally, measure the length of mag tube for the number of cartridges in your mag, and figure the "excess" as spring clearance. Based on that capacity/spring clearance calculation, determine how much mag tube to chop. You can of course, cut simply on the 16.5" desired length, but you might find that a 16" mag tube would be adequate (save a bit of weight) or that you might keep one more round with a 17" tube. Just a thought... [/QUOTE]
