It would likely handle a bit easier especially in “pucker brush”! The slight loss of muzzle weight may, affect how quickly it “snaps” to the shoulder. The velocity loss will probably run 25 to 40 FPS loss/ inch, so I have read..... I’ve never cut one! If it’s for “up close and personal”, 150 or so FPS less velocity , is nothing I would lose sleep over! If you are guiding and it will be a back-up rifle, cutting it makes plenty of sense. If it’s a one time hunt.....”I’d “pull hard on lever B! Obviously, this is JMO.....I’m sure we have others with actual experience! memtb
