Remington 11-87 in 12 ga. But have purchased a Beretta A300 to send the Remy back as a dedicated sporting gun.

Winchester SUPER -X 12g, only 2 3/4 for upland. Thinking of trying a Remington 1100, not sure of lengths.

Go with the shorter barrel, if in doubt (IMO, 26" is ideal)......Modern shells with plastic wads are naturally tighter. And most newer guns come with choke tubes......Long barrels are cumbersome in the duck blind and heavier when hunting upland.

Ok will do, makes sense. Thanks for the advice.
