I am looking at getting a shotgun for turkey hunting. I am thinking about something reasonably priced like a Rem 870. I see that the ones they advertise as specialized turkey guns have very short barrels....I believe 21 inches.
I want to know if this short barrel is a good thing or would I be better off buying one with a 26 or 28 inch barrel in case I may want to do something else like dove shooting in the future. Does it matter at all to the performance of the gun since they all have screw in chokes? The turkey version and the regular version of the 870 express are very close in price, so that is not a factor.
