silverhawk Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Ive come across a reaily nice shotgun that i could use as a rougth gun the only thing thats putting me off is its got a 24inch barrel.Ive heard 24inch barrels dont shoot as far as say a 28?The shotgun is a 12bore and feels nice to handle does anyone use a 24 inch on pigeons?

point and shoot Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Why not. I had one many years ago. Couldn't miss with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy Galore! Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 the range issue is rubbish, if it fits well then you'll hit things with it. the only thing you might find is that you'll pull throught the target quicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ptrangmar Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 The shot collumn is up to velocity in about 10" with nitro powders. Black is a different matter. 30" and more depending on load. I shoot with a 24" Franchi gas semi auto. Great pointability Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mad1 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 (edited) i would rather shoot with a gun i am comfortable with any day of the week rather than try to get on with one that is not natural or bad fitting Edited February 13, 2011 by mad1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
