I have a 77/357 that I had cut down to 11” but I think this one will need to be shorter since I’m using a bowers vers 50 which is almost 12” long. I think I’m leaning to chopping 12” off which would be a 6.5” barrel like the last picture shows.

Ehh, I’m inclined to say right at the end of the stock but I see your point
What’s a ballistic table say? Thick woods hunting? Just target shooting? Excite to buy a new suppressor? Lol ETA: wow, I’m disgusted with 77/xxx prices on gunbroker! |

Excite to buy a new suppressor? Lol ETA: wow, I’m disgusted with 77/xxx prices on gunbroker! I cut my 77/357 right to the end of the stock and it looks pretty good. The bowers 50 is mostly for my 500s&w. I might get a 45 cal can that shorter at some point but no time soon. Right now at that barrel length I’m shooting 260gr cast bullets at 1150fps I think. But I’ll probably end up shooting mostly 300gr. And I should be able to get them to 1000fps without issue even with a barrel down to 4” Prices are crazy but you should see how much that 10 round mag costs. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Quake_Guy: I wouldn't chop that nice stock... I go back and forth on that. I think if done professionally it could look great but if I did it myself it would be a disaster. I have a synthetic one on my 77/357 so I could switch them and cut the synthetic one up. Or just get a Boyd’s stock and butcher it. |
