Hey guys, I’m looking for a match grade rifled barrel for my 870. The plan is to take my current 870 and turn it into a tactical dream gun, that will shoot slugs into a shot glass at 60yds+.
Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated,

A smooth bore and some Fosters oughta get ya that…
Hows come?
Foster slugs arent like a knuckle ball or anything. Think like a badminton birdie, they are front heavy and follow the weight.
There is no such thing as a match grade rifled barrel for an 870. They make three. One is 20" with rifled sights and the other is 20" with a cantilever mount and thirdly a 23" with cantilever mount. Those are your only options.
That may be true if he stays factory, but there are after market barrels (hastings, etc) that are rifled.
Bill- Are you saying the Hastings is a Match Quality Barrel?
No such thing for a shotgun is there? So it hardly matters if he gets the Hastings or the Remington. The performance is in the ammo not the barrel. These are not rifles.
