I have an H&R 20 Ga with a fixed modified choke. Will the Winchester long Beards work well in it with the fixed choke ?

Recurve

Probably not pass 25yd with a decent pattern. But you need to shoot the LB to see how the gun will pattern

Nope. I had same problem, getting anything comfortable past 25 yds. Had mine sent to sum-toy to have a choke put in it.

Are you willing to step out of the boat as Peter did?  Think about it, he wouldn't have walked on water without stepping out of the boat!

What is your barrel length after getting threaded?

Same here.  William's done a couple for me.  They are SHOOTERS !!!!!!


No change in barrel length to thread it.  Whatever it is now............that's what it'll be.

Good to hear.  I talked to a local guy that threads a lot of barrels and he said he has to cut it back so far for thickness before he threads.  I wasn't crazy about that idea.

The modified H&R barrels have enough meat at the muzzle to go right at it with the threading.

Another question, does the thread pitch matter?  I'd like mine done for a Rem choke. If s there enough meat to not cut and thread for the Rem chokes?


Thanks
