"Parker Brothers chambered their 12 gauge guns at 2 5/8" for 2 3/4" shells, and noted that on tags attached to their guns as well as in factory documents. Parker guns were chambered 1/8" shorter than shell length as a standard procedure. "

Wasn't that because the old paper shells had a different 'spent' profile than modern plastic shells?
