All of my (way too many) sxs except two have 28, 29 or 30 inch barrels. But the one I seem shoot the best is the Dakin Arms imported Zoli 20 gauge with 26 inch barrels. It's been desert quail hunting in Arizona and gets a regular workout at the skeet range.

Oddly enough, it's probably the least expensive (and least valuable) sxs I own.
