Austin is right and the diagram is wrong, at least for a breechloader. No English bird gun has .238 chamber walls. A second thing to consider is that the barrel wall thickness at the chamber is not doubled at the inside in most double guns. Austin's .190 chamber wall dimension is way less than .380 between the chambers of a 1 1/2 frame Parker. The one I just measured is only about .308.
