Default What do the experts say?

I have a set of 10 ga damascus barrels that are pitted. Wall thickness is .042 and .047. It shoots a decent pattern.

A few of the pits look "deep" but that is a relative term and I'm not sure how "deep" deep is! In other words, I'm not sure I can get them all out without going too far. Should I:

1. Leave them alone and go shooting?
2. Have them honed and see where I end up without going too far?

On the second option, even if I can't get them all compltetly out, is fewer pits better then more pits? I guess is that it is hard to say. Just a few could be a problem I suppose.

Generally may feeling is not to fix something that doesn't need fixing but I'm not sure if my barrels are in need of fixing.

Thx, Ray
