New Browning A5 Sweet 16 Pattern

So here are my results of patterns using Federal Prairie Storm, #5, 1 1/8 ounce, 1425 fps 2 shots at 40 yds using Tru Lock extended choke tubes on a 30 " target:
Skeet 2, .650 constriction, 292 pellets
Modified, .645 constriction, 259 pellets
Improved Modified, .640 constriction, 268 pellets1000004121.jpg1000004120.jpg1000004119.jpg
 
26” or 28” barrel? I’m looking at ordering one soon. I like those patterns for those chokes. I’m a fan of Trulock chokes. I was thinking of using Briley chokes if I got it but may just stick with Trulock.
 
Bought one in 2022, and have an old Belgium model sweet 16 from 1962 that was my grandpa's. Love both for different reasons. The new one cost a little more than I'm sure my grandpa paid new but it's a great gun and worth every penny so far.
 
Took new Sweet 16 with Prairie Storm to South Dakota last week. Was very happy the way it performed on wild pheasants. Would not hesitate to use this setup over my 12 gauge.
