[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1283047, member: 2736"] I would remove 1/2 to 3/4'' of the barrel and live with the looks. Cut enough off to assure accuracy, and still stay away from the fluting as much as possible. If you get to close not only does it look bad, it could become a safety issue. The manufacture wants 1" removed because he knows this will totally remove the chance of leaving any bad bore. In truth it probably doesn't take that much but it varies from barrel to barrel. Just My Opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
