Default Does shortening a shell increase pressure?

It's kind of a stupid question. Here's a recipe I can do as I have the stuff, but want to do it with my gajillion 2 1/2" 16g RST hulls I have in a tub:

Cheddite 2 3/4"
Win 209
7/8oz shot
16g Unique
Fold crimp
SG16 wad
As tested by Armbrust 1158fps and 6866psi

If I simply use a 2 1/2" hull instead does anything change substantially or will it not fit? I'm just waiting on the press to get here any day then I can load a boat load of these.
