my 870 youth compact has the 18.5" which I love for maneuvering in the woods but I think the 21 is the perfect length for patterning. that being said the one I have is a killer out to 55-60 yds which is plenty plus some.

If I was buying/building a dedicated turkey gun, I'd opt for 21-22"....with that said my Winchester 1300 is 24" and shortening it by 3" isn't worth the cost to have it cut down/rethreaded. My Stoeger 3020 is 26" but it doubles as my dove gun so I'm gonna leave it as-is. I keep threatening to put a shorter barrel and youth stock on it for turkey season, but by the time I did that, I could just about buy a whole separate gun

There are 3 certainties in an uncertain world:
1. All Politicians Are Liars
2. All Gun Laws Are an Infringement
3. Taxation Is Theft
