Try measuring some fired 16 ga shells. Rems and Wins are 2 11/16's when fired. I have three flats of Fed 16ga and I don't know what they are fired yet.

I am not in the least bit concerned about 1/8" of thin plastic, and after about 80,000 rounds through a 1921 gun, I grow even less concerned.

Here I am holding a prairie chicken killed with a Rem Express Long Range 1 1/8oz load. They work fine on chickens and pheasant and are a standard load for me in the wind.
