The current Boss offering in 16 gauge is the short chambered 2 9/16” 3 dram loads that were meant to cycle the old Browning A5s. Boss ran some 2 3/4” fiber wad low pressure shells a few years ago, but they are not commercially available. RST at one time had low pressure Bismuth but they are currently out of stock. Salt Creek Ammo also makes short chambered low pressure 16 bismuth but they also sold out.

I shoot the 3 drams out of my Trojan. The 2 3/4” 1 1/8 oz high brass that my grandfather shot for years worked for him.

I would get your VH checked out by a gunsmith and go from there.
