Jerry,
I actually start out with 3 in. hulls in an Ithaca 10 gauge with 2 7/8 in chambers. The I reload them again for a second firing in the Ithaca. Since I roll crimp, after 2 firings the case mouth gets a little rough so I trim them to 2 7/8 inches and use them in the Parker. After two firings in the Parker, I trim them again to 2 3/4 inches. Once they have been fired six times I either discard them or trim them to 2 1/2 inches for an old english single barrel...load them with rocksalt....and shoot cave crickets in the basement with them.
Love those 10 gauges.
