Since there is no way to accurately measure the depth of the pits and pitting almost always looks worse than it actually I can't advise for or against it on your gun but you will not be removing very much metal with the emery cloth and you can stop if you feel that your barrel walls are reaching what you consider to be the minimum safe thickness. The 600 grit cloth is primarily to polish the bores and doesn't remove hardly any metal.
