How Big is Yours?

Trying to keep it clean. Just wondering what everyone's
preferred barrel length is. To date all of my guns have been 28"
and i'll be buying a new over and under for clays and game next
month and thinking about choosing a beretta with 30" barrels. I
dont think it will make a lot of difference just curious to see
what everyone else prefers and do you think there's any truth
that longer barrels will assist in a smoother swing or make the
gun more pointable?

I have a 30 in o/u a 28 inch sxs and a 26 jnch semi auto and
shoot just as well with all of them as long as the gun fits i
dont think it makes much difference

I've both a 28" Lanber Sporter and a 30" Miroku 38 and to be
fair, between them I don't notice much difference due to the
length of barrels...
The Lanber is heavier, but shorter which keeps the weight close.
Whereas the Miroku being lighter in the barrels, although
longer, kinda balances out...
I don't notice any marked improvement in shooting either gun..

i tend to shoot a bit better with my beretta at clays (30 3/4)
just feel more confident with it but could be due to better fit
compared to my auto! and the 20g kicks the crap out of me so
tend to try and avoid the clays with it already! 200 shots is
enough for me to keep it for hunting haha

I agree, 28" barrels are a more comfortable fit for me
