Benelli recommends (I believe) a 1 1/8 oz shot with their 3" guns (not sure about their 3.5" guns) and my Beretta needs the same to run without occasionally having problems (3" chamber).

I have a 3” chambered Benelli Vinci and if I start with a clean gun I can shoot 2 3/4” 1 oz Gun Club loads for around 250-300 shells before they won’t fully cycle the gun anymore. With 1 1/8 oz GC’s I don’t know where the failure point is because I’ve yet to reach it.
To BigJimP’s point I believe the 1 oz loads are just under 1200 FPS and the 1 1/8 oz loads are right at 1200 FPS so he may be on to something there.
