I personally don't see the need for a 3" 28 gauge. The 2 3/4" payload is about as perfect as you would want. That being said, a friend of mine has 3 or 4 flats of 3" 28ga, #6, at $130/flat. He knew I was a 28 freak but I told him the only gun I knew that was chambered for that round was a Benelli or Beretta auto. Does anyone know of a good smith that could lengthen the chambers in my VHE 28?

Send me the 28 30”’and I’ll lengthen the chambers for you myself . Just might take me five years and when you get it back miraculously the chambers have healed back to 2 5/8”
