Default What shells to shoot in Trojan/Vulcan barrels?

I have 2 Parkers. They both have 2 9/16 in chambers.
One has Trojan Steel Barrels (1920) No pitting.
I have been shooting my own 2 3/4 in low pressure reloads of 5800 psi in it for years. Anyone advise against that? Can I shoot 2 3/4 in standard field loads also?

The other Parker I have not shot.
It has 2 9/16 in Vulcan Steel Barrels (1912) Minor pitting in the bores. Is it OK to shoot the low pressure 5800 psi 2 3/4 loads in it?

Any advice appreciated
