Where someone in the past had stamped MODIFIED on the right barrel flat I would suspect ‘something’ has been done to the chokes and if the chokes had been worked on, maybe the chambers have had something done as well.
Before shooting any 2 3/4 inch ammo I would highly recommend you have the chambers professionally measuresd as well as the very important wall thickness at the juncture of the chamber and start of the forcing cone.
