Nice old Winchesters! How well do you shoot the 97's? I haven't shot mine for a decade or so since the last time I shot it I didn't do well with it. I'll have to try it again. It is a long barreled scamp and the stock is tight.

Are the 16's on a smaller frame than the 12? I am a big fan of the 16 and while shells can be difficult to find, the old girl refuses to die. My model 12 16 may have short chambers. I read that some did/do. I've also read that the ejection port has to be open to allow the longer shell to pass through. Is that true?

Actually I don't mind shooting the short shell, I think RWS loads them.
