    Is there such a thing as magnum 2 3/4 shells?

    I have some #4 1 1/2 oz. lead magnum 2 3/4 inch from the early 70's. so yes there is a 2 3/4 magnum. They kicked like hell. (we used them for geese and they worked great!!!).

    Duck Gun?

    I most all cases it is the the lose nut behind the gunstock. Benelli is the finest but you can do well with most any auto or pump. As I said , it is the lose nut behind the stock more than the gun.
