Dave, Since the damascus barrels that your gun came with were replaced with Vulcan steel barrels, it's possible that the Vulcan barrels were ordered at 25 inches, and with IC/IC chokes. Also, the bore diameter became closer to the normal .729 in the early part of the 20th century so there's a good chance your barrels are .729 +/- a little bit.
