If it's on a 0 frame, the barrel wall thickness will be good.

I have a 00-frame 28 gauge made in 1935 that I shoot both 2 1/2" and 2 3/4" in but I've never measured the chamber length of it.

Dean, I'd expect a 1935 vintage 28-gauge to have 2 13/16-inch chambers intended for 2 7/8-inch shells.

You're exactly right Dave! I just went to my gun room and measured the chambers on my 28 gauge Skeet gun at 2 13/16"

The pattern? |

The pattern?
Assuming equal pressures in shells of two different lengths (say 2 1/2” and 2 3/4”), and the shot size and volume of the shot is identical, then what difference does the chamber depth make?
What differences in performance can I expect see in the patterns? Any other interesting differences?
