Milton:
The issue with your Bonehill barrels depends entirely on how severe the pits are, and if they can safely be honed out - and choke kept if any. Many times, light pitting is not an issue. Especially near the muzzle. If wall thickness about 3 inches back from the muzzle is over .025 they can probably be cleaned up. But... it's often just as well to polish the area and live with minor pits. Out there they present little danger.

Bonehill was a good maker. He used a lot of machines to make his guns. But they were generally well fitted.
