The prudent thing is to have vintage barrels checked out by a qualified gunsmith. When I was a kid, I bought a few Damascus Parkers because that was all I could afford at the time. I shot them all with my hand loads, at around 8,000 psi and never had a problem. I shot a few seasons with a GH 20 bore with corn cob bores without any problems, which isn't to say it should be done. I guess I was lucky and as a kid, I didn't think anything could hurt me.
