When I was in Ohio one of my machinists was really in to turkey shooting. He had four different 40" barrels and the one he would use depended on the shells they were furnishing for the shoot. He was of course working on more. He wouldn't share the internal differences as to bore, forcing cones, choke, etc. of course. Some of them are REAL serious. He did do an excellent job cutting well over a pound of metal off my 10 gauge BPS. After that, and some judicious removal of plastic from the inside of the stocks, it was the best handling 10 gauge I have ever seen.
