| Does anyone have pics of a Ruger American 308 with a barrel shortened to 16 inches and other modifications. |

eastTXhunter did the cutting and threading for me. Check out his thread in the EE in the service section. I just sent him the barreled action. Disassembly is pretty easy just a couple hex bolts holding the stock and two roll pins holding in the trigger group. Awesome. That's where I planned on sending them. I may go 16.5" on the .308 and 18" on the .243. Then I need a Harvester or something similar. |

Here's my .243 cut to 18" with a Silencerco Omega. <a href="http://s18.photobucket.com/user/dewingrm/media/IMG_0095_zps4modgrzn.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b103/dewingrm/IMG_0095_zps4modgrzn.jpg</a> Nice! I'm torn between the Hybrid, Omega, and Harvester. I have QD cans and this will almost strictly be for these lightweight hunting bolt guns. |

On a related note, what kind of accuracy are you guys getting with yours? I'm only averaging around 2moa while my forty year old model 70 is consistently a 1moa gun or better. Did you notice any improvement or change after cutting and recrowning? Haven't got to shoot mine yet. I will post some groups when I do. |
