    As mentioned above, get the wall thickness measured before you shoot it ( you should have asked for measurements before you brought it to be fair if is to be shot), Robert Dollimore at Tarawera is the man for all things old and nice. Don't let Damascus barrels put you off but er on the side of caution. If it is 2 3/4 chamber then I would be its been nitro proofed at some stage. Put a pic up of the markings under the barrel if you can
