Lead or steel or tungsten, 1350fps with shot shells carries a need for distinction. Probably better defined as high-brass aka magnum load. Can you fill it with 3" slugs?

You can't on the Saigas, I imagine it's the same with this. 2 3/4 only unless you want to manually chamber one round at a time, then you can go smaller.

not true. You have to have a hot load. 1 1/8 ounce. Minimum 1200 fps. And it cycles like a champ

I wasn't thinking smaller, so the magazine only accepts 2 3/4, it probably also is only chambered for 2 3/4. I was wondering because 3" mags should cycle it no matter what the load. I'm ruthless with my shotgun loading, you get three 3" 00 buck to start and if you're still talking shit, four slugs for follow up.

I've never tried to fit 3" in a Saiga, It probably wont fit in the chamber.

I just had to look it up. "The Saiga-12 incorporates an adjustable two-position gas system, with "standard" and "magnum" settings for firing 2-3/4" and 3"-length shells respectively."
