I have a Remington 870 Super Express Magnum... with a 26" barrel, choked with a Primos Jellyhead.. which extends it another 2".
The barrel has been worked by Gun Docc and I'm thinking about sending it to him and having it shortened.
He recommends no shorter than 24". I trust him completely.
My question is though, with the choke I'm shooting, I'm only losing 2". Would it be worth all the trouble, just to lose 2" of length?
I'm shooting Nitro 4x5x7's -- 3.5" -- 2 1/4oz.
What would y'all do? Leave it as is? Shorten it?
I have no complaints with it's performance.. but it is a bit long and sometimes gets in the way while trying to make a shot..
