12 Gauge...

I bought some ammo for turkey season tonight. It was all they had left in 2 3/4". Winchester Super X
When i got the box home i looked at it and at the bottom of the label on the top it says
12 Guage 2 3/4 Inches MAG DR. EQ. 1 1/2oz 6 Shot.

Im shooting an old Savage Model 30E and all the gun says on the side is 2 3/4" Chamber. Think i can use this ammo? The only thing that worries me is the MAG DR. EQ. Anyone know what this means?

Thanks.

Looking on their website i see that in all their turkey loads the description starts with "supreme double X magnum" so im assuming i can use these in my gun?
This is worrying me haha, as i want to hunt this weekend but i only have 2 shells left from last year and this was the last box in the store.

Here is winchesters website.

Dram equivalent is the weight of powder charge in drams. So you have a maximum powder charge. So go whack one and grin for the camera. Your fine with that 2 3/4.
