I think I am going to pick up a few extended length chokes just to make up an inch and a half or so of pointing distance since I do find myself stopping the shot too quickly.
With the tubes we have today a 26 gun is essentially almost a 28 gun, but I'm no expert.

I think mine's a 24. It works. Too long a barrel and I get crosseyed looking with both eyes open.

I use a 24" barrel when hunting in a pit blind ( O/U Citori). After my first shot, my buddies are shellshocked and I get first dibs on second shot.

I still use my old Winchester Model X 12 semi-auto with 32" full choke for ducks and geese. The 28" is probably the best for all around.

32", good lord. How do you swing that?

Every gun is different, one gun might swing better for you with a 26" barrel, while on the next gun a 30" feels better...

True, I just couldn't imagine shooting a 32".
