I have a 308 B14 Hunter, which I love. A fairly light barrel. It's 22" and is supposed to be a woods hunting rifle and some times a shorter range plinker with 300 yards usually the max due to the scope on it being set up for MPBR and no reliable turrets. One issue is after 4 shots or so the barrel gets warm and loses accuracy until it gets 5 minutes between shots to cool.
Anyway, back to my question. I love hunting with short barrels anyway. 16" is nice in the thick stuff, which made me wonder if I shortened this barrel to 16" do you think it would help the hot barrel issue at the same time? I'd seriously think about having it cut and crowned if there was a decent chance it would.
