I cut and pasted most of this from a different post I had written ... this is how I did it.
Cut mine down to 16 1/4 ... Marked it using a plummers pipe cutter, cut it with a hack saw, squared it with a file, crowned it using a conical grinding burr in a air grinder. Took all of 45 minutes to do once I got the courage up to actually begin cutting.
Groups went from just over 2.5 inches at 50 yrds to about a half inch
put the gun in a vise, I used a small bullet level and leveled the gun off of the ranch model's scope mount base, I used a steel ruler across them. my front sight is eagle type flash surpressor with h&k style ring & post mounted with a set screw. the ring & post are set screwed to a machined flat on top of the supressor, level the flash hider with the level across the flat, tighten the set screw on the supressor, screw the ring & post back on and re-zero.
drilling the hole is easy, though. Use the hole in the site or muzzle brake as a guide (tighten the set screw so it won't move) and drill thes same size hole as was in it.
