This is part of an answer from Bruce Buck:
Quote:
The big difference between the B-80s/301~3s and the newer gas autos from
Browning and Beretta is that the older guns aren't design to
interchangeably take 2-3/4" and 3" shells. It's one or the other. In fact,
the early versions of the Beretta required a pretty crisp 2-3/4" shell to
get them to work with light target loads. The Beretta gas gun was never as
popular as the Remington 1100 until Beretta figured that out. It only took
them 20 years. Go figure.
