Why lengthen the chambers if you can shoot 2 3/4" low pressure shells out of a 2 1/2" chamber? Per these two threads and Sherman Bell's articles, there is not that much pressure increase.

On the other hand, an acquaintance who was close to the late Cyril Adams had this happen to him after he lengthened chambers from 2 1/2" to 2 3/4".

He had this to say: "I bought the gun for me as it is a non rebounder. I did not have it proofed because I never intended to sell it. When it arrived I observed that the chambers were very thin compared to most. I recut the chambers to 2 3/4. I only shot light 28g shells through it and it performed flawlessly for over 500 rounds. I was preparing for the Adam’s cup and could only find 1145fps 32g loads. It let loose after the 15th one."
