Just something to keep in mind, 3" loads would hammer the heck out of the shooter anyway.
I'll keep that in mind! I've read Savage never made the Fox BSE 12 gauge with 3" chambers, maybe to prevent this sort of problem. I've read that only the two trigger B model 12 gauges came with the 3" chamber.
