Thanks. Good idea! But I think T C will replace it 4 free.
if you decide to cut it. i cut them with a band saw ,file it as flat and square as you can. take a big countersink and crown the inside,touch up with the finest file you have to remove any burs. a q-tip work great for checking for small burs on the edge of the rifling. i usually take a buffing wheel on my dremel and smooth everything up before rebluing the muzzle. ever gun that i have cut actually shot better after it was shortened.rod holders are the only problem you could have depending on where the bulge is. you may have to drill and tap to get the rod holder to work.
