Unless it's a 10 gauge, then 2 7/8" chambers were intended for 2 7/8" shells.

Great issue. I particularly enjoyed Harry's book review. Babcock is my favorite "outdoor" writer and I have read most of his books, but not "The Education of Pretty Boy." Now I've got to pick up a copy and find out just what happens and who stole that dog. Thanks Harry for a wonderful article.
