I don't load for 3" 12ga. Are you looking for lower pressure? Lyman's 5th has a small number of 3" loadings. The lowest are right around 8,000psi. If you want a couple, let me know. I'd be glad to look them up for you.

2 3/4" shells loaded with 1 1/4 oz. #6 is all I've ever needed for turkeys at 45 yards or less with a full/full Parker 12.
