Scott: sorry for the qualifier, but no one can tell you if your gun is safe, and certainly not without knowing the wall thickness at the end of the chamber, the forcing cones, and every inch of the first 12" of barrel.

Quite a bit of information about 1/3 down here regarding Decarbonized/Bessemer Steel
