Foxtrot--A manufacturer of tss shot shells  make a 20 GA -2 3/4 in shell.
Trying to determine the velocity of their 20 ga shell before I subject
a 1926 Specialty Grade LC Smith to undue pressure.
Recently 2 3/4 20 GA requires a diligent search.


Send him an email, he would probably tell you pressures
If you load you own there are tss low pressure loads

I have found a box of Remington Express 2 3/4 in "Power Piston" 1 0z-# 6 shot. The box is probably at least 25 years old ...or older.
I may just use these older lead loaded original shells. These will be for the 1926 Specialty Grade should I use it this year.
About 15 years ago I had the stock checked and reinforced at the action head by an LC Smith stock specialist. He was an excellent stock
man here in Alabama. He also tightened and adjusted a 1916 Fox BE grade forend.
