I've got some Cerrosafe you can use to make a chamber cast.
For the record, I have about 5 cases of 12 ga 2 1/2" 16 ga ammo that fits well into my Sweet 16 that is chambered for 2 3/4".
Member on OSA hooked me up.
Reason it's 2.5' is because it's European ammo. No plastic wads, just felt wads. As I read, plastic wads are not allowed in Europe for environmental reasons.
I know this doesn't help the OP with his question but just some additional info about shotshells.

It doesn't.
He was trying to identify it as a hunting gun by the choke size therefore it was a 2 3/4 chamber. Remember, detective logic.
Man. I can't think of the last time I felt this stupid in my own post on here. Maybe 2009? But hell I'm definitely learning this time. And that's all I can do, learn, learn, learn.

There are no dumb questions....We all can learn something new if we try.
If you get up to Tulsa I got a gauge.
Choke doesn't directly have anything to do with the chamber. In this case the choke is fixed and the choke is stamped on the barrel. It might help to identify which model of the firearm you have. Knowing which model you have may help you determine which chamber you have.
Shoot a 2 3/4 shell.
If it sticks and won't eject, it's 2 9/16.
I picked up a sweet sixteen at a pawn shop that wouldn't eject 2 3/4 shells. It would eat those Fiocchi 2 1/2's though like a champ.
With a little research, I discovered it had the short chamber.
I traded it for a newer belgium 16 that was 2 3/4.
I don't know if that would work on a pump gun or not.

If you ever get to Tulsa PM me I got a gauge
I actually drove to the city the other day to borrow one. Now I know beyond a shadow of a doubt.
