mossberg replacement barrel for rem 870
« on: November 27, 2010, 10:19:09 AM »
has anyone used a mossberg replacement barrel for a rem 870. i am interested in their fully rifled cantilever barrel but i was concerned with the porting at the muzzle. in turkey guns the porting slows the wad and separates it from the shot resulting in better patterns. i wondered if the porting would have a negative or positive effect on saboted round. i'm not sure if sabots are designed to stay with the bullet or separate once they leave the muzzle. can anyone clarify this for me.  Thanks Zack

i have a mossberg 500 with a fully rifled barrel and it has porting.  These seem to shoot very well for me when using slugs.  If your worred about the quality or the accuracy of a mossberg made barrel, dont be.  The porting seems to make it louder but also reduces some of the recoil.  by now im sure you have made your choice but just wanted to throw this out for you.
