All,
I've been shooting 16-20" .308's forever. I recently picked up an AXMC that came with a 26" 6.5Creed barrel. Needless to say, it's a long rifle and I'm hanging a suppressor on the end as well. So, I'm wondering about cutting this thing back to somewhere around 16-20" but am completely unfamiliar with this cartridge. Will I be chopping the legs out from under this by going that short? 308's do well short, does the 6.5Creed?
