Yes trimming barrel is easy. Pop it into vice, measure 16" from receiver (or the length you want), cut off with hacksaw, tidy end with grinder or file/wet and dry etc, then put appropriate size round head brass screw in drill, and work into bore end with grinding/lapping paste to create new crown. Then check by putting cotton bud in and out of bore to ensure no burrs, perfect crown. Does it work - about 20 done and all but one sub 1" at 50m, and most around 0.4-0.5" groups.
