    Question Rem. 870 rifled barrel

    Does anyone know where I could get a rifled barrel for a Remington 870 20 gauge? The gun was bought brand new in 2020.

    You could try CGN gunnutz, or Gunpost

    I do not know much about the 870 but there are different variants so be sure the barrel matches the receiver.

    The 870 with a green mountain rifled barrel is a combination that was winning target competitions a few years ago.

    I ordered one from Tillsonburg Gun Shop a year or so ago. I’d suggest a cantilevered barrel if you are going to mount a scope….

    you can always just add the cantilever later on. just 1 part that clicks into your trigger dowles.

    The problem with the saddle scope mounts is there can still be movement between the receiver and barrel that throws off your accuracy.

    For 530 dollars I may as well get a slug gun! LOL.

    Check out the Hastings-Paradox line of barrels. I have one for my Wingmaster that has open sights and rifled for sabot slugs. It's deadly accurate to 125 yds.

    Like Rick-iles said cantilevers are way better than saddle mounts for accuracy . I have one for my 11-87 and one for my 870 both in 12 gauge fully rifled for sabots and they weren't cheap to buy but at least available so just finding a 20 gauge cantilever available will take some doing and then try and find ammo... good luck with that ! Seems that ever since Ithaca came out with their 20 ga. Deerslayer there's been a stampede for 20's because everyone thinks they can shoot a deer at 200 yards. LoL ! Me... I wouldn't risk a 200 yard shot with my 12 ga. for fear of wounding it. Most of our shots are less than a 100 yards and the bulk are around 50 yards or less. Cheapest way to go is with a smoothbore and rifled slugs in either 12 or 20 ga. and I hear that 20 ga. ammo is hard to find.
    Good Luck & Good Hunting !
