In South Carolina, the legal limit for the number of shells that can be chambered in a shotgun for hunting purposes is three. This includes one shell in the chamber and two in the magazine. However, for certain types of hunting, such as waterfowl, hunters must adhere to federal regulations, which also limit shotguns to a maximum of three shells. Always check for specific regulations as they can vary based on the hunting season and location.
Yes, you can.
All day long. Any shotgun can handle shorter shells than it is chambered for as long as they are the same gauge.
Is it chambered for magnum shells? If not, the answer is NO.
The length of the chamber in a 2 3/4 inch chambered shotgun is 2 3/4". The longer 3" shotgun shells will not fit in the chamber, being 1/4" too long. You can shoot 2 3/4" shotgun shells, of the correct gauge, in a 3" chambered shotgun.

12-70 is frequently used to indicate the gauge of the shotgun followed by the length of the chamber in millimeters. In the US, or non-metric measurements, that means a 12 gauge shotgun chambered for 2.75 inch (usually read two and three quarter inch) shells. Sometimes, you'll see 12-76 to designate a 12 gauge shotgun chambered for 3 inch shells.
