What length of barrel do you shoot?

Fatbeard · March 17, 2015, 10:33:25 PM

I shoot either a 20" on a 835 or a 24" on a BPS. I know 26" and 28" are common. Never turkey hunted with one over 24. Thoughts on the longer

For those who have shot a short and a long barrel is there a difference noticable on patterns at say 40 yards?

Had a 21 now I have a 26 because it will out pattern .

20" thought it was 21" but it's not. Remington 870 predator/Turkey.

28" on my New A5....

Longer barrels pattern better for me...

A 26" on my SX2 and a 23" on my 11-87.

Remington 870 with 26" barrel. Always heard that most long barrels will pattern better, but I'm sure that all depends on the gun.
