+1 - Incredibly tight patterns, even with birdshot and my 18" barrel.

I am also thinking of extending the Mag Tube of my Rem 870 Express - but I didn't know about the dimples on the inside, or the need to grind them off. Is there any way I can just replace the existing mag tube with a longer one (7 or 8 rounds) rather then add on to the existing tube? Thanks.

The mag tube on Remington shot guns are brazed in the receiver and can only be removed with a torch which would affect the heat treatment of the receiver. Now if you had a Mossberg well that a different story.
