Hey guys,
I have the opportunity to pick up a 77/22 hornet for a really good price. It's a 1:14 twist and I was thinking about cutting the barrel down to 16 inches and threading to for a silencer.
Other than loss in velocity, will there be any problems with a shorter barrel? Will it still stabilize 35-45 gr bullets?
Thanks
