The 20 has set multiple world turkey shoot championships. I know that it set the world record with 43 pellets in a 4" circle at 40 yds with factory Hevi-Shot turkey loads, before Hevi-13 came out and with a Wrights Superior Choke tube.
I only used wd-40 in the barrel, but now understand there is some much better cleaners on the market.

Yes I did have my forcing cone done as I shoot the cheap Benelli Nova it had a very short 3/4 in cone. It made a difference I believe...
