Actually, in my mossberg 500, it has some mag tube left after (5) 2 3/4 but not enuff to cram a sixth in there... It also holds (5) 3 inch shells. Many guns are the same in this regard. I do not know any that hold a higher round count with 2 3/4.

Remington 870 standard mag tube will not usually hold the 5th 3" shell. the one I had with the extention would hold seven 2 3/4" with enough extra room to switch one out for a 3".
to the original question there are a few reasons I use 2 3/4" buck the biggest is 9 OO buck is and always has been great deterrent.
