Not necessarily. Parker routinely cut their chambers 1/8th inch short to achieve a better gas seal for the fiber wads used in period ammunition so a chamber that measures 2 3/4 inches would be appropriate for use with 2 7/8th inch shells.
That is true for guns chambered for paper shells. Guns chambered for the B brass shells should have a chamber exactly the length of the brass shell.
