It 's my experience, having been reloading for nearly 50 years, that there is no 2 3/4" load, that I can not duplicate in 2 1/2", with an alternate wad. I load 12-28 and have the 'short kit' on all of my MEC presses. With the exception of a great wad by Fiocchi, which has been on back order for a year, I use Guilandi wads and almost all are available in short or long (and even medium) lengths.
