Data I've seen shows the pre-War 12 ga/3-inch/1-5/8 ounce load at 965 feet AVERAGE over 40 yards, and the very same load did 1315 feet "muzzle velocity" after the War when electronic chronographs came into use. That second number is considerably higher than posted by Dave. Both as tested with number 6-shot.
I’d be okay with 1300 at the muzzle !
