mark Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 A friend of mine has just purchased a sako 75 and would like to cut the standard barrel down to 18 inches How will this affect the accuracy if at all,he will be shooting out to 300 yards as it is going to be used purely as a stalking rifle Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon J Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 No opinion on accuracy, as I don't believe barrel length is likely to be a factor. But he is quite likely to have difficulty making the legal minimum muzzle energy if he's after roe or bigger in England (1700 ft.lbs) and Red or Sika in Scotland (100 grain bullet and 1750 ft.lbs). See elsewhere on this forum for details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
