There used to be a law perhaps it was a state law ? shells couldnt be over 3.5".
Now though on the DNR website I couldnt find any regulations for gauge restrictions . Like for turkeys it used to be nothing smaller than 20 ga well for any large game hunting . Now none of those rules seem to be on their website .

12 ga 3.5" shells have a terrible shot string , there was a video of a fellow testing out different 12 ga 3.5" loads and the shot string was about 12ft long IIRC but I dont remember what range their moving target was .
