[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 1282947, member: 5219"] I made a 30" 5R bartlein longer than their specified length. Some of the muzzle end was cut off but not as much as they suggested. I looked at the bore with my borescope and decided to see if it could stay longer. It is a 6 BR and shoots bugholes so I guess I got it right. I would suggest you cut off at least 1/2" of material in front of the fluting, crown and shoot it. It is shoots poorly you will have to get very close to the end of the flutes. [/QUOTE]
