I use 26 inch barrels both on my 12 and 20 gauges. I figured it's no too short and not to long, easy to move around in the woods with.

I like the shorter barrel guns (21 to 24)for turkeys and around a 26 -28 inch barrel for upland and waterfowl.

I had my 26" SBE2 barrel cut down to 21" after buying a new waterfowl gun, and made it my dedicated turkey gun, so far I'm loving it at that length, much better than before...

I like the 21" barrel, easy to carry and use in woods and get great patterns with my setup.

Hunted with a 28" barrel in my old 500 for years. Switched to a 20" barrel a few years ago when I started hunting our wooded parcel in WI. Fairly thick woods and the 20 incher works great. Easy to ease around for a shot without hitting branches etc. Never going back to that long tube!
Love fishing and Deer hunting (Shotgun, Muzzleloader & Pistol). Recently became addicted to Turkey Hunting.
