The real reason is that Parker bored guns 1/8" short as a company policy. The secondary reason is that a plastic shell that intrudes into a forcing cone 1/8" does not create any pressure difference over a plastic shell that does not intrude in a forcing cone at all. Shells that are a bit longer than the chamber length are just no problem unless the chambers are very old and square ended for brass shells.
