That hangtag and box of shells show that that the 3" initially still had 7/8oz of lead. James, that is a wonderful Parker! So nice that you have the hang tags and it is such a good looking gun!
I suspect you're 100% correct on the shells .

However I've got two flats of nice new Browning 20 gauge 3" shells holding 1 1/4 ounces of #5's that will be used in a Parker or Parker Repro with 2 7/8" or 3" chambers whatever the case me be at tower pheasants
