I have a question that I have asked Remington (yet to have a reply in over a week) I asked Federal (check owners manual not one thing about it in manual). Is it safe to shoot 2 3/4 slugs in a firearm that has a 3 1/2 chamber? I picked up a box of Lightfield slugs it has a warning not to shoot them in a 3 1/2 chamber. I would guess that forcing cone and shells end there is a gap. I've gone an old Wingmaster that prior owner turn tactical I would use the slugs in it. Sorry for being so long thanks for your time

Got a reply today
2 3/4 inch slugs are perfectly fine for use in a 3 1/2 inch chambered shotgun. We do not know why Lightfield would advise otherwise. This may be a question for them to answer, but we know of no reason why they would not function correctly.



Thank you and best regards,
