What difference would 1/4” make anyway? The chokes would not have been affected by a reduction of 1/4”. Parker customarily bores chokes with from 0” to as much as 3/8” of “parallel” bore at the muzzle. “Trimmed” barrels are not uncommon and IMO do not detract from a ‘shooter’ gun’s value.

I got an NH a few years back that was pretty much a beater but useful for actual use . Anyway there was an ever so slight part at the muzzle , so we clamped it in the vise on the mill and took a skoosh over 1/8” off the muzzle problem solved as the minute separation disappeared and after shooting several hundred times it didn’t restart .
