I have a VHE 16 in high original condition with the same notice. Gun is 1923 with 2 9/16 chamber. No overload stamp and no Remington repair codes. The pre-finished weight of the barrel is 3/3 and the finished weight is 2/14 on a 28 inch length. Chamber/FC juncture is .105
1923 would be three years earlier than the beginning of the OVERLOAD PROOF stampings. They appear to start in the 217xxx range during 1926
