[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1946463, member: 68875"] Unless you were at max load for your rifle before, any velocity loss due to 1.5" shorter barrel length can be negated by either a touch more powder charge, or switching powder choice. As long as accuracy is still there, really not a lot of difference between 2960 and 3000 (just reference velocities) that any game animal alive will notice. And you won't see much difference in drop until you hit 800+. I would definitely be ****ed too, unless your friend's rifle was ported the same way. A call to the smith is definitely the next thing you should do. [/QUOTE]
