P.S. One guy told me if I put a 3 inch shell and it fits, then I can shoot 2 3/4? Assuming because it would resemble a shot/open 2 3/4 casing.

the way to know the chamber length is to get them measured with the right tool-

there is always the possibility that one guy is the exception to the rule (Darwin's rule in this case)

the odds are they are 2 1/2 - get the RST's in any case, they are great shells - and the lighter recoil will be better for that over 100 year old wood.
