I have a 16 ga., VH, 1903 that measured 2-3/4” chambers. A Research letter verified it was special ordered with 2-3/4” chambers. (Dean, you may remember, I showed it to you at the Southern to evaluate the case colors). I have wondered why it was ordered this way….Were the 2-3/4 shells just becoming popular at the time (assuming most were 2-1/2”) or was there some other reason to order it that way..? Was the buyer just looking ahead? Thanks!
