What is a lengthened forcing cone?

The forcing cone is the transition immediately forward of the chamber. Typically a shotgun has a very abrupt diameter change from the chamber into the bore. All SKB shotguns have lengthened forcing cones which provide a much more gentle transition for the shot column. The lengthened forcing cone provides better downrange performance by diminishing pellet deformation, and is responsible for a reduction in felt recoil.
