By all means Bruce, that is ok. Your information is well received. It is a topic that I do not know that much about.
Yeah, my initial question was where to get 2.5" shells, but also if there is any legitimate concern with putting 2.75" shells through it.
I usually just use the Walmart Federals or Remington Gun Club loads for clay shooting.
Another question that comes to mind is if 2.75" hulls could be reloaded into 2.5" Could they be trimmed and crimped down to 2.5"?
Clearly if I buy a flat of RST shells, I would just reload them once I start doing so, but it is a thought that comes to mind.
I did measure some of my once fired 2.75" shells that I was saving for my first reloading experience and I did find variation ranging from 2-3/4" down to 2-5/8" actual measurements.
