Mystery solved!!! (I think!)
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			Thanks to a very gracious and savvy P.G.C.A member with the proper equipment, I now have some accurate figures which to work! 
According to this fine gentleman, the chamber  runs .770 out to .761.  Then the barrels are as follows: 
RIGHT--.730 to .731 at the end. 
LEFT--.731 out to .732. at the end 
Choke (?)- cyl & cyl 
Chamber--2.425 (2.5) 
 
So what does all this mean?  Darned if I know.  What I DO know is that it sounds too big to be 14 or 13 gauge--shucks!!!  Sounds like many of you mentioned--some version of a 12 ga. --most likely a 12b??? 
Anyway , a BIG THANKS AGAIN TO ALL WHO HELPED ME!!! 
 
P.S.--Even though it was probably luck, I'm pretty proud of my" homemade barrel measuring device"  With it we came up with a figure of .724 compared to actual values of .730-.732 for a difference of only six to eight thousandths. Not too shabby for a magic marker tube, a little fine sandpaper, and a ramrod! (plus someone else's caliper)
