    Yeah I’ve done this a number of times. Works well and is a heap cheaper than a carbon one!

    20” is a pretty good compromise if still wanting to stretch a bit every now and then. Even 18” be ok as mentioned. Put a DPT magnum can on it and away ya go. Don’t worry about the stainless baffle,...

    18" and you'll still be able to shoot 500 yards piece of cake. Could be wrong but I'm pretty sure Duley's .270 bushpig data superformance behind a 145gr eldx was still going 2950fps. Why have a...

    If its a 'close range bush gun' whats wrong with just leaving it at 22" and no can, not going to be shot much in anger ? Even with a can it will still need hearing protection, so a longer barrel...

    Down to 20" is fine. My as factory .270Win Sako 75 Finnlight barrel is 20 7/8" (7/8" makes a difference according to the Mrs :XD:) I would recommend the steel baffle for the DPT cans, as the...

    I have a 270win rem700 , 18inch barrel with dpt. 150gr soft points for bush hunting. I’d have no issues chopping one again to 18inch

    I have used the previous model for years now and very reliable. Not ultra sharp in low light but a very good rangefinder bino option at the entry level.

    Excellent, glass is very clear and image is crisp and bright. Not quite Euro glass standard, but not far off either. Range finder accurate and reliable, way further than I’d ever shoot (hunting)
