The Mystery deepens
So I have determined my Rem 1100 20 ga heavy frame shotgun was made in 1974 and carries a Feb 1975 barrel marked with Improved choke. Kicker is it is a 25" barrel. I went on the Corson's Barrel site to look for Rem 1100 barrels and only saw the 25" barrel listed for the 28 ga and 410 ga. I called back Rem and they said the barrel is proper to the gun since it is stamped 20 ga w/ IC.
My question; Has anyone seen the Model 1100 in 20 ga from the early 70's with a 25" IMP Choke barrel? [?]

Did you measure the barrel with a wooden dowel ?? My 1100 20 is inside length of 25&1/2 inches. 0 -

No I just went by what Cabellas put on the sales slip. I measured it in a cusory manner with a tape and it looked 25" but I didn't look very closely I also called Rem and they didn't correct me when I said it was a 25" barrel. It could very well be a 25 1/2 inches. I'll take your word for it. Is this a common barrel for the 20 ga with the X suffix?
Is yours a Improved choke Duck?

Yes I/C. If you measure fron the front of the reciever it will be 25 inches 0 -

Yes So are these common? I can't find them listed in the Blue Book under Rem 1100 w/ 25 in barrel except in 28 ga or 410 ga. What do you know about them?0
