I'm looking getting another shotgun, probably a 870.
I like the 870 express synthetic because of the price and the 7+1 capacity, and i can modify as i go, however I do not think this would be good for much use other then home defense. I cannot afford to have a bunch of different types, so I'm looking for one i can use for defense as well as some 3 gun i want to get into. (i have a 870 express turkey gun i use for hunting, and a o/u Weatherby for skeet that was handed down to me) 20-22" seems to be ideal, so does anyone have a suggestion for types to look at? or suggestion on barrel? |

dubyaSis right as for three gun matches.
Your not tring to brake a clay bird way out there. When I set up shotgun matches, I set them as close as it was safe to set. We shot steel,it has been a while, think it was 21ft. A little farther if 00 buck was used. I used a Ithaca 37 Deerslayer 18 barrel for years. Went to an 1100 not for the longer barrel as you may think. It was so I could have more rounds 10 plus one. Way more important then auto or pump or barrel length. Learn to load smoothly! Good luck!!! PITA45
