Mec makes a 2 1/2" conversion which works quite well, I have one on my 12 and 16 ga loaders and no longer bother with 2 3/4" shells even shooting 2 1/2 in my 2 3/4" shotguns. In my 12's I load 11/16 of 9's for skeet(odd bar that I found in my parts box) and 7/8 oz of lead 8's and ITX 6's for trap, SC and waterfowl hunting. I still have a case each of B&P High Pheasants 2 1/2" 1 oz 6's and 7's for hunting. I roll crimp the Non-Tox so it is easy to tell the difference.

16's get 3/4 oz of everything except 1 oz of NP BB's for coyote hunting out of my drillings

After the first shot the rest are just noise.
