I have a model 12 with a split barrel. It starts at 23 inches from the breach and heads up toward the muzzle about three inches. My dad stuck a steel shot in it hunting ducks. Thankfully it didn’t hurt anyone. But now I need to do some cutting. I want to cut it back to 20 inches flat. He thinks it best to try and save as much barrel as possible. Either way if we don’t get it threaded and cut for a choke it’s a straight bore. So what say y’all ? Does two inches matter? I can’t see the velocity moving much either way. Odds are if it will stay in my closet anyway.
