[QUOTE="imyourhuckleberry, post: 2094633, member: 18206"] I was thinking the same thing. I would recommend at most a 26" barrel. I've seen 27 and 28" barrels leave shot gun patterns at 200 yards. If the OP wants to do long distance with such an excellent cartridge. I would shorten the barrel to 26" or if you want 27 or 28" heavy contour or a tapered contour in 27" would be more suitable. Going to 28" does not gain you much of an advantage, at the most 25 to 30 FPS only. It will be difficult to find OCW with a light 27" but it is doable . Congratulations OP. [/QUOTE]
