Think I'll use a gunsmith to measure chambers. I've got too good ones here. I'm pretty serious about this chamber length question since my GH, that I'm picking up Monday will likely sport a shorter chamber. Did they make 2 3/4 chambers in those early (1895) GH grade guns? Can I assume it is short?

If it is, should I just shoot 2.5 inch shells or have the chamberes reemed to 2 3/4? Frankly, being new to damascus tubes, I don't know how much flexibility I have. No matter how much I read that they are strong enough, I have to admit being leary. Moreover I am not opposed to shooting shorter shells. I'll never shoot standard store bought shells in my GH. I'll shoot RST/Polywad and/or load my own.
