what have you found works with re developing a load with a previously accurate barrel once it has been re chambered?
i have heard some guys just boost the load to get back in the same velocity node but after cutting off part of the barrel it would have to change the harmonics??
barrel re chamber and load adjustment?

My experience is same load shoots well but you lose a few fps. It may well be able to be pushed higher. Worth running a couple of groups though.

I chop back pretty much all of my barrels and at least with a rechambered barrel, they always have the same powder/primer/bullet preferences. and it likes the same seating depth as when the barrel was new as long as you use the same reamer.
Powder loads are usualy very similar (usualy very close to when the barrel was in its prime, or a bit less than its boosted loads as it wore out)
