Default Shells for damascus guns

I may soon have a damascus gun, short chambers of course, and wonder if I really need to load 2 1/2 " shells. I already load and shoot mostly lower pressure, 7/8 oz, and under 1200 fps in 12, 16 , and 20. Are these suitable? I have also thought of getting some PB powder as it seeems to produce lower pressures. I prefer to not have to buy special shells for just that one gun.
Yes, the barrels have been checked out and deemed to be in very good shape. One of the guns is a 16,the other a 20.
What do you think, and what do you shoot? Thanks
Harold
