Dean,

I don't think so. I had a Remington 10 ga hammer gun grade 1 with decarbonized barrels. The barrels had some small dents and I sold the gun when I found out how strong decarbonized steel is; the reccomendation was not to shoot it with black powder or low pressure loads but to find one that had twist or Damascus barrels. Ordinance steel is a different composition and VERY much stronger. I saw something about how strong ordinance steel is in Remington Doubles by Charles Semmer.
