Indeed sir. I've used 2 3/4 inch hulls/cartridges in 12, 16, 20 and 28 bore guns for years. Thousands upon thousands of rounds, too. Velocities are around 1150 fps. NEVER a problem. And the hulls come out looking totally normal.

Consider that the forcing cone accommodates an extra 1/8 to 1/4 inch of case material with no issues...
