I have a 12 gauge DH made in 1898 with 2 9/16” chambers and I shoot 2 3/4” shells in it all day long. And I can not really discern a difference in recoil.
I’ll never have my chambers lengthened and I’ll never change what I shoot in it.

I wonder what kind of ammo and what length ammo was used in these guns before they were ours????
