I shoot a 2 5/8 Parker 10. A single edge razor can be used to cut shells - they're cheap. Just stick it in the dowel at about a 20 degree angle. Any load that works in a longer shell will work - there's just less room for shot and or wads. I like the paper wads - it's easier to adjust the wad height. In the Remington hull, the Cheddite primer works well for me. Why some people think you'd need less powder for a short shell is be on me - the volume of where the powder is has not been reduced. The available volume for shot or wads has been reduced. You won't raise pressure. Paul
