This is big in the target world. This is when you take stock barrel and bore down in it. Then glue sleeve/choke in the barrel. This is a sleeper gun.  I would not trust one with turkey loads.

i hunted with a model 37 that i had sleeved for turkeys for 8 years. it was still shooting strong when i sold it. it all depends on who does the work. i have several match barrels that are sleeved for low brass only.

the trouble with a sleeved barrel is that you are pretty much stuck with the size of the sleeve that you ordered. to remove a sleeve and try another constriction can be expensive
