My take away from this is.

Shooting 2 3/4" shells through a gun with 2 9/16"/ 2 5/8" chambers is perfectly okay to so. Being as Parkers were intentionally designed to shoot longer cases (with-in reason) in shorter chambers.

Accordingly in the short ten. Shooting 3" shells in 2 7/8" chambers would hold true as well.

King's warning regarding checking the end of the case is important.

Thoughts on long shells in short chambers are here about 1/3 down
