This video from TGS Outdoors discusses shotgun barrel lengths and choke systems, emphasizing that handling and personal feel are paramount over specific lengths or multi-choke systems. While multi-chokes offer versatility, they can add weight and affect balance. For clay shooting, longer barrels (e.g., 30-32 inches) are generally preferred for steadiness, while shorter barrels (e.g., 28 inches) offer more speed. For game shooting, the choice depends on the specific quarry and shooting style, with a balance between gun speed and target distance being key. Ultimately, the instructors advise choosing a shotgun that handles well and feels comfortable to the shooter.
