I'm also getting a Badger Barrel put on my custom 12 ga. As I said on a previous post, the gunsmith putting the gun together told me that barrel is shooting 1 inch groups with Federal Barnes tipped expanders and 1 1/4 groups with the Lightfield at 50 yards. Both in 2 3/4 inch. However that barrel hated the SST's he said about a 12 inch group at that same distance. I spoke with Randy at Lightfield and said that the 2 3/4 inch were good to about 130 yards and the 3 inch were good to about 170 yards. And that 3 inch faster slug should like that faster twist of the Badger barrel. And said that combo should be able to put golf ball size groups together at 50 yards under the right conditions, and proper technique day in and day out. I agree with wink man that Badger barrel would be a great option.
