    I'm getting 3100 with 65gr not sure how long it is probably 20-22".
    I want to shorten it so it will fit under the seat in the boat but I'm scared to touch it because it shoots so we'll and I don't really want to lose the velocity either.
    I only need to take a couple inches off I think.

    I'd cut the boat instead...
