Cut the barrel, cut the stock, just don't etch your D.L. into the receiver.

Cut & crown at 20 try a hundred rounds, see how it feels off hand. You can then cut It to 19 and see how much better that is. Or, if it was me, just make 1 cut at 18.5 and be happy. ( I would be happier with yours than the other one listed jmho)

Surprising how many have done this or their sin numbers.

Then wonder why it won't sell?

Leave it as it is ; trying to shave off two inches is not worth the effort .

That particular rifle is a 99E economy carbine. The scope is not worth squat. The stocks are birch which is probably why they are painted and powder coated metal? Better deal? Not in my opinion.Regardless, i'll keep what i have rather than give it away. The cut and crown wont cost me a dime as we can do it at work.

Well the scope is not your $400 Leupy but it is $130 from Cabela's. Substract the price of the scope and the rings and you are getting a factory 20 inch carbine for $300. A better deal than what you are asking for yours. Cheers!
