    Define decent.

    Figure out what muzzle velocity you need from your ammo to get the impact velocity you need for the bullets to do their thing properly. Chrono it as is then work backwards to see how much you could theoretically chop off whilst remaining above that threshold.

    Then leave the thing full length, because a short barreled 300wm sounds like it would be frickin horrible to shoot.
