CAUTION !! Assuming that your gun has 2 3/4 inch chambers and the forcing cones have not been altered then the minimum barrel wall thickness (BWT)18 - 20 inches from the breech end of the barrels should be .032 inches after polishing out the pits and in no case less than .025 inches even with low pressure loads ( 7000 PSI or less). You should also have a competent gunsmith examine the barrel ribs to make sure they are still securely soldered to the barrels. Good luck ! John H.
