    I've just done one for Lee Bales, UK Neil took a third of the length off the barrel, screwcut it and crowned it. I wouldn't want to go any shorter than that or the rifle will start to resemble a CO2 fire extinguisher when you fire it.

    You will reduce the power by removing barrel length, not too difficult to sort out.
