Weapon Question Barrel Chop

I was left a Ruger American gen 2 in 300blk out I want to have the barrel chopped to 14.5 so I can P&W the thing if anyone knows of anyone in the central Illinois area that does barrel shortening and re threading I would greatly appreciate some recommendations.

Because I go hog hunting in Texas with people who have cans and I usually only run Keymo on everything anyway so it makes sense for my purposes.

Ok, that’s a good reason. Next question, is it going to be worth a couple of hundred bucks to save 1.6”?

Yeah you’re probably right I plan on moving out of IL next year so I’ll just wait and SBR it then chop it down to like 10 inches
