Here's another interesting tidbit from the DGJ in the Winter 2011 article. All of the SBT chambers measured came to 2 5/8. It goes on to state that Sherman Bell has written that shooting 2 3/4 inch shells in the shorter chamber doesn't raise pressures enought to worry about it. But it is interesting.
I wonder if they were applying the "slower shot, tighter pattern" theory. Also trap matches can be long - many shots. No need to launch magnum loads. Therefore, if one wants to do it right one must shoot 2.5 inch shells. I shoot standard trap loads in my gun and do just fine.
