2 1/4" bats are usually offered in lighter drops in the same model vs. 2 5/8". For example. a model may be offered in -8 and -10 in a 2 5/8" and offered in -13 in the 2 1/4" model. [links]

2 1/4" bats are usually offered in lighter drops in the same model vs. 2 5/8". For example. a model may be offered in -8 and -10 in a 2 5/8" and offered in -13 in the 2 1/4" model. [links]
For the record, he's just about to turn 11, is 4' 8" tall and weighs 88 pounds. And, all of his bats are 30" long. [links]
My son only started using a "big barrel" in games last fall. And, I have seen him blast the ball with that bat. (Usually with a -8.) But, that said, I have seen him hit the ball just as far with the 2 1/4" bat in games - and against very good pitching. Further, it seems, at least to me, that he blasts the ball more consistently using the 2 1/4" bat (that's either a -10 or -11). All the bats in this conversation are composite barrels. here
Just by eyeballing the aluminum models available, the higher price bats, they manufacture make a better swinging bat buy adding more mass, where the barrel begins.
To improve the swing rate on any bat, the designer needs to add more mass towards the handle. The longer the barrel and bigger the mass towards the handle, a heavy bat would not fell heavy when swung. This would become an advantage for wood bat hitters, because they can use a denser bat which will equal better pop off the bat.
1 degree of arc on a 2.75 bat is about 4.55% bigger than 1 degree of arc on a 2.625 bat.
20 degrees the launch angle increases, the difference of launch angle between the two increases by 1 degree.
Thanks for letting me know about the S4, there are 14 available on Amazon for $88. This is what HS and college players should use for simply better bat control and improve approach. I'm thinking about buying the lot for some of my players. [links]
Q for the math/physics savantes: how much will 1/8" improve the launch angle or distance relative to a off set mishit from 2 1/4 and 2 5/8 barrel bat?
Most of those people were very willing to sell them back at half price. Of course, they are super-handy at 26.37″. This makes them very easy to stuff in a backpack, under a car seat or to station next to the bedside table. [links]
Kel-Tec chose to use an 18.5″ barrel due to NFA overall length issues of using something shorter on a bullpup. For those willing to go the NFA route, they do offer an SBS version with a 13.7″ barrel. The twin tubes hold five 2¾” shells, plus one in the chamber. more
An example of this length is the Stoeger M3K. Longer barrel lengths are used to maintain a tighter column of shot for a longer time period and it also tends to give a bit higher velocity to the shot leaving the barrel. This helps the shot to settle and have fewer pellets sling themselves laterally when they exit the barrel.
It will likely make them run, surrender and certainly inhibit their ability to hurt you or yours. here
First, a little bit about the differences between long- and short-barrel shotguns.
After running each firearm against the same course of four steel knockdown targets, she had questions.
The Barrel Outlet uses state of the art CNC Equipment to create our barrel contours. We currently offer the standard McGowen Barrel contours as well as standard Savage and Remington rifle contours. We will soon be offering additional contours with a small programming charge. To request additional contours, please use our suggestion form here. Our barrels all come in a polished finish. Many barrels you receive from other sources are in what we refer to as a “lathe-turned” finish. This means that your barrel will require polishing to be finished and ready for your firearm.
Other companies only offer barrels at certain lengths. So, if you want a barrel that finishes out with a total length of 24″, you’ll get a 26″ barrel with a saw cut in it. The Barrel Outlet will contour your barrel to your finished length. So if you order a McGowen #2 contour that has a .600″ diameter muzzle, and you want it 24″ rather than 26″ we don’t contour it at 26″, we contour it at 24″, which means that at 24″ it will maintain the .600″ muzzle.
We offer 2 basic contours, a “Sporter” contour and a “Target” contour. You can see by looking at the list below that many of the contours, whether it be McGowen Precision Barrels contours, or another companies contours are basically the same, there are some minor variations such as the length of the chamber section of the barrel or the length of the transition between the chamber section and the radius bringing the diameter down smaller before the taper to the muzzle. An example would be a McGowen #1 vs a Douglas #1 contour. The “C” section of the Douglas is at 3″ instead of the 2.5″ that the McGowen has. more
