Thanks David. I'll continue with that assumption until some anglophile comes along and proves differently.
Next question, what does the 3 1/4 tons per square inch translate to in relation to shell/load pressures? I'm once again making an assumption that it's not 6500 psi.

The gun was proved 1954-1989
The mark lower extreme left is the date code http://www.hallowellco.com/birmingha..._date_code.htm 3 1/4 tons = 9,800 psi = 676 BAR service pressure

John,
Are the barrels marked as sleeved? If the barrel were sleeved in England, either the barrel flats or the side of the barrel should be marked SLEEVED. Ken |

Barrels were originally Damascus.

So Drew, does that mean don't shoot anything over 9800 psi?

The gun also has Briley thin chokes but they are the ones with about 2 1/2 inches of thread and Briley only makes those by special order these days.
