The only reason I could surmise was the purchaser only wanted to use 2&3/4" for his first shot and 3" for the second for pheseant going away shots?-Dick

Mistakes are rare but I have come across them from time to time but this is the first missmatched chamber length stamping I have heard of. I have had the odd one with the nominal bore mark missing and seen 2 1/2" chambers marked at 3 1/4 Tons. Lagopus.....

LD don't know you well enough to tell but coming from Kansas I'm inclined to give you the benefit of a doubt.
