Default Reloading For Short Chambered Guns - Couple Questions

Hi all, new to reloading and I have a couple questions for you old hands regarding 2 1/2" chambered guns.

Question One: I have several Brit doubles with 2 1/2" chambers and would like to know your thoughts on shooting low pressure 2 3/4" loads in them? I'm thinking of reloading some 2 3/4" loads where the pressure is 7100psi, the shot payload would be 1 or 1 1/8oz and a MV of around 1150fps. The guns are post 1900.

Your thoughts please.

Question Two: Does anyone have a recipe for a 2 1/2" load with a shot payload of 1 1/8oz? I'd be using Cheddite hulls. I know this load is out there as New Era Ammunition used to load them prior to them closing shop.

Thanks for any comments and suggestions!

Best!

Greg
