I favor shorter barrels.

My primary gun is a 27inch 16 gauge

My secondary back-ups is a 26inch and 27.5 16 gauge guns.

The only longer barrels I have are in 12s I do not shot much and my 16 citori I can't bring myself to sell.

I agree that MOI dynamics are more important than barrel length.

Though I do not discount barrel length can be much more important to some of us than other factors.

I have owned a 24in 20ga OU and a 25in 12ga SXS but neither worked out. Their balance was wrong and I did not swing them well.
