Eric,
I had a VH 12 gauge with pitts deep enough for a grounhog to hide in. This is the Parker I gave to Sherman Bell to blow up and if you have read the article in Double Gun Journal you will remember it did not blow out down the barrel at 31,000 + psi, it blew at the breach. I shot anything I could stuff into the chambers through that old gun. I would not hesitate to shoot RST's or low pressure handloads through your 16. Those are lovely old guns with the dished out water table. I woul keep it whole and what a wonderful little 28 gauge it would make with Briley tubes.
