Looks to me it's not shooting as good as it did before the barrel cutting. Be mighty hard for me to touch anything on a rifle that shot as well as that one before it "went under the knife." I know what you mean. It was a hard decision, but I wasn’t going to be happy with it any other way. I’m pretty confident I can tighten that group up. I wasn’t really taking my time, it was fairly windy, and that was on a pretty hot barrel if that makes any difference. I was really just trying to get it dialed in close, and shooting to get a muzzle velocity average. If I’m not happy in the long run, I’ll just re-barrel it. That was actually my plan from the beginning, but wanted to give this a shot before I did.

That'll work , BTW that's about 3/8" center to center , you're measuring overall.
