Thanks again to everyone for the input. Particularly JB. If I do this myself I will certainly get the tool, otherwise I know it would get jacked up.

Why not hacksaw the thing if you can finish the job? There's nothing wrong with chopping a barrel or rasping a stock to make a weapon more functional. We're not talking about collectibles here. I wonder how many Krags and 1903's heard those same words before their demise. Travis

I'm not talking about military stuff, that's a whole different world. Nothing wrong with whacking the barrel of commercial rifle.

GW,
My stainless .308 T3 went from the gun shop to my gunsmith. I had the barrel cut to 19 inches. Because of this I can't give you a before and after comparison. With the cut down barrel I've had no problem getting sub inch loads with 150 and 165 bullets.
