How much velocity will one lose in 2"s?
How fast do you think my 870, 18.5" deer barrel will shoot 3" Black Cloud BB rated 1450 fps?
None but you are losing a smooth swinging gun and a long friendly sight plane. shell speed matters very little but your sight picture and swing mean the world.
The 18.5" barrel is 30 fps slower than the 28". Just fired them thru the Oehler chronograph.
Smooth swing and long sight plane don't mean crap, when you have a large pattern with a lot of shot in it!
Easy to decipher who shoots and who doesn't on here.
This gun has shot little Teal buzzing across the sky! It doesn't have bumps, it has rifled sights. You don't have to have a long barrel to have a good swing!
When you are a kid and only have one gun, you learn to make it work!
