I bought a heavy barrel varmint Rem 700 in 308 from Cabelas last fall -dirt cheap, so thought I'd tweak it to death. (Magpul stock, etc) I'm thinking of shortening the barrel to 'scouterize' it (shorten, thread) and then throw on a brake. So I have two names- Odenthal and Kobe. Haven't checked with either, but thought I'd check reviews/suggestions here first. I'm also wondering if I'm not thinking of something or sacrificing by doing this (ballistics, etc). The barrel is right now 26" and I'm thinking at most 20", if not down to 18".
