[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1054522, member: 12995"] Barrel length is not a factor of accuracy. Cutting a barrel down WILL affect velocity (shorter barrel = lower velocities). Most likely what happened there, was there was either a bad spot in the rifling, or the barrel needed recrowning before you cut the barrel down. If it shot ok before, then it was most likely needing to have the end of the factory barrel milled a couple thousandths, and then professionally recrowned. [/QUOTE]
