I believe that if you can get the shell to properly chamber, then you can fire any 3" shell from your weapon. You probably won't like the recoil, but you can do it.

Gazpacho, I'm not sure if you were referring to ripcurlksm's post specifically or to shotguns in general, but it should be noted that that 3" shells will load in 2 3/4" chambers but will not fire safely. The measurement is taken with the hull open. As it opens, a 3" shell's hull will open into the forcing cone on a 2 3/4" gun, causing a potentially dangerous situation. I can't recall the specific site where I read this, but it may have been mentioned in Remington's Shotgun Basics Course.
