[QUOTE="VinceMule, post: 2844984, member: 122164"] If you have a great shooting load at 26" length, you can sure change the harmonics by cutting the barrel, I have seen it twice on my rifles. I cut one 300 WM down to 19" for use as a truck gun, jeez that gun was loud! Look at how tuners change harmonics on a barrel by shortening and lengthening the barrel by only a few thousandths. Another issue, the cost involved to remove the barrel, cut, and crown. Probably $150 or more. Concussion of the short barrel 7 Rem mag will be MUCH greater unless you are already deaf. [/QUOTE]
