I have a friend who is just becoming a Parkerphile: He has a VH 1 1/2 frame coming and called me to say the chambers are 2 5/8" instead of 2 3/4".
He wants to know if #1: Can he safely shoot 2 3/4" shells in it. I told him Yes.
He wants to know if he should go to the trouble of trimming reloads down 1/8" to make them true 2 5/8." I told him no.
However, he is a very precise person, much more than me; who has shot thousands of 2 3/4" shells through Parkers, and want some reassurance.
I know this is one of the oldest most asked questions, but who knows, maybe I will learn something too.
