Default Using 3-1/2" Slugs?

I have read @ Lightfield's homepageand other sites that you should shoot the longest slug you can in your gun. This makes sense to me becauseif you use a slug that is shorter than the length of your chamber the slug has to "jump" that extra distancetowhere thebarrel is rifled. I shoot a Mossberg 835 which is chambered to 3-1/2". I knowa lot of people don't follow thisrule but if you want max accuracy then doyou agree I should shoot 3-1/2"?

Here is the link. Almost at the bottom of the page.
