I plan on rebarreling for the first time with a Krieger (308, 1-11.25 M24 contour 5R) bought over their website yesterday. I also plan on having my action trued when I send it in, should be a shooter!
The finished length is listed as 26". Is it possible to cut shorter when getting it chambered and crowned, or is this generally unrecommended? As in, the barrel itself is optimized/designed for that finish length of 26"?
I'm happy either way, just wondering what's possible. I'd probably go no shorter than 24" anyway.
Thanks all!
