I read many different discussions on various forums last night trying to educate myself on whether or not to use 2 3/4" shells in a 2 1/2" chambered 20 Ga gun. I'm still not sure after all the reply's what the correct answer is.

Since this pertains to a 1912 VH 20 Ga with factory 2 1/2" chambers in excellent mechanical condition I would like to get ya'lls opinion. I shoot RST shells in all my 20 Ga guns and Julie gave me the PSI of the shells listed below.


20 Ga. • 2 3/4" • 2 1/2 DE • Vel. 1125 • 7/8 oz. 7000 PSI

20 Ga. • 2 1/2" • Falcon Lite • Vel. 1125 • 7/8 oz. 7200 PSI


I already have 3 cases of the 2 3/4" shells listed but don't have any 2 1/2" shells.

SO ... From your personal experience would it be safe to use the 2 3/4" shells that I have in the VH 20 verses having to buy the 2 1/2" shells ?

Thanks
