I had my Remington done and love it its now 19 inch long and the handling is massively improved, I thought about the issues of velocity loss, and went back to Reloader 7 powder, from Varget, with the view the faster powder would compensate for the shorter burn area available, also tried the 40 grn vmax instead of my 52 grn hollow points, to be honest there is no noticeable difference, now I am back on Reloader 7, I am happy with the results, but I never fire above 300 yd, and to be honest I havn't had to do that, since I had it cut, but I would be confident if it was needed,my back is bugge
