I checked the serial number on the Research Letter and the PGCA has no information for a letter.

Bill is right on. Here is a box from 1931--

I have or have access to all the Remington ammo catalogs through that era and nothing heavier then the 2 3/4 dram equiv. pushing one ounce of shot was offered in20-gauge, but I guess if someone ordered enough of them Remington would load them!?!

Serial number 153333 would be a 1910 gun, well before the above box, when loads like these were the factory offerings in 3-inch 20-gauge --
