The only length I've seen is 2 3/4 in shells. That is the length of the chamber on my Model 77-B in 16 gauge.
Early guns, those made prior to the 1930s may have 2 1/2 inch or 2 5/8 inch chambers, So, while modern 16 gauge shells are 2 3/4", early 16 gauge shells were 2 1/2".

Will shotgun shells ever go into a glycerin state as dynamite does when stored for a long time?
Let's hope you don't have shotgun shells filled with nitroglycerine! Shotgun shells are limited in power because shotguns are not cannons, They are very light weight weapons. Gunpowder (any of several types) lasts virtually forever if kept dry.

What was the largest caliber shotgun made?
The largest EVER made was a 2 gauge. It holds a 2 pound metal ball, if I remember correctly. According the gauge index, a 2 gauge shotgun would hold two half pound balls since the diameter of the shotgun tube determines the gauge, the number of balls to equal a pound going down the barrel in this case would only be two to make a pound. Whereas in a 12 gauge, it takes twelve lead balls of the barrel size to make a pound. A two pound meal ball going down the tube would make for a .5 gauge.
