There aren't many 1 ounce 2 1/2" shells out there. If you are willing to shoot 2 3/4" shells, it's better to stick to 7/8 ounce light loads. Your gun has probably digested hundreds of 2 3/4" 20 gauge loads in its lifetime.

I would love to take it turkey huntin next spring and would be better to shoot a 2 3/4 I’d shoot whatever as long as the gun would handle it. I had never heard of Parker shotguns before yesterday so information is like drinking from a fire hydrant! I greatly appreciate y’all’s help thanks!!
