There is no need to lengthen the forcing cone when shooting hard shot such as Hevi Shot, Steel, etc..

I recommend just cleaning your gun... after workin mine for 2 hours today... I patterned mine and didn't find any change... or at least nothing I could see.

Had my Benelli SBE and had it ported and forcing cone extended. Made all the difference in the world as far as recoil with 3 1/2"

We used to do the lengthening of the forcing cones for our trap guns before Browning began to over bore their barrels regularly. The lengthening of the cones does more than anything else short of overboring.
