Well I'll be. They sure did and lots of times too. And so did Remington with those sts shells. No wonder I missed.

Sam, TPS has a whole chapter on chambers and bores. The answers to your questions are yes yes and yes. I have a bunch from 1883 to 1910 and chamber size is not something I worry about. Some I shoot at ducks with some heavy commercial loads , when I go duck hunting which is once a year or so to remind me about sitting in an icy blind and getting up at 4 am.

Bruce, thanks for giving me answers. I'll try the 2 1/2's first and see what happens.

I don't have TPS...maybe my wife will buy them for me for Xmas

Sam you can do anything with a 2 1/2 inch shell that a 2 3/4 inch one will do except you never have to worry about chamber length.
