Shortening a rifle barrel will reduce velocity (in most cases) but when done correctly does not reduce accuracy. The cut must be square with the bore, and the crown (end of the barrel) will need to be machined after the cut. The cut should normally be made on a lathe, and not with a hacksaw. BTW, 30 inches is a VERY long barrel for anything but a muzzle loading rifle!

Can a gamo whisperer shoot bb's?
If you do you will destroy a perfectly good rifle. The Whisper is designed to shoot Pellets not BB's. It has a rifled barrel (Grooves in the barrel to catch and spin the pellet) this makes them fly straighter. Pellets are a soft material. BB are a hard material. Forcing them through a rifles barrel will destroy the rifling. This is why BB rifles have smooth bore barrels. If you have started to shoot BB then you have already started to destroy the accuracy of the rifle and dropped it's value. So don't do it.
