Default short or not!

Paul-I'm short, are you?

I have factory labelled boxes of shells of different lengths. Some of these are (B&P for example) are labelled 2-1/2" They measure about 2-1/8" standing tall as loaded. Fired they are 2-1/2", which is the same length as my Frogger's chamber (65mm). Yup, I've fired 2-3/4' loads in the same gun.

I want recipes for 2-1/2' length as fired cases, that's all. Why? No need for extra recoil (for example, my French Parker weighs 5# 10.) More pressure is felt on the rear of the stock...

Anyone know a good shop in the Portland area that has a good selection of shell for vintagers?

Thanks Guys!

Mike
