Les, I've purchased 3 1/2" new Remington 10's (Empties) and had them trimmed to 2 7/8". Ballistic Products, or Precision Reloading (?) carry them. Hope this helps. Mark

2 7/8" was the chamber length for 3" shells.
Remember, Parker Bros. cut the chambers 1/8" shorter than the shells to be used for a better gas seal. |

The British have a 3" 10 gauge with a maximum working pressure of 3 1/2 tonnes or roughly 10500 PSI.
All but very late and rare 3 1/2" magnum Parkers we either 2 7/8" or 2 5/8" found in early guns. It is always best to measure the chamber length. |
