It was a Federal International skeet load indeed, lots of pressure but my point is, had that Evans chamber been 2 3/4 instead of 2 1/2 there would not have been any pressure signs. I accidentally fired it and I will not do that again!
I cut down Federal paper hulls to 2 2/4" and use a light load of Green Dot. People keep telling me to use 2 3/4" hulls in my 2 1/2 chambered guns and I simply will not do it.
