A good tubing cutter with a "reamer"(the triangular piece) should cut the pipe in about 30 seconds and you will have the same ID as when it was uncut. No need to clamp down hard with the tubing cutter, start out with mild pressure and continue through the cut that way and it will minimize ID contraction.
