Kirk, you can proof test those barrels yourself. The components required are an inflated spare tire, rope or heavy duty ty-raps, 80 ft. of heavy string, 2 3/4" magnum loads a hard hat , and eye protection. While proof testing has huge risk to those Bernard barrels it will determine any safety concerns. More than 40 years ago I was involve with an AH 12 ga. damascus gun that the dealer wanted to replace the damascus with Vulcan barrels. I convinced him that the gun would be much more desirable with both sets of barrels. I assure you the gun will shoot as well with Vulcan barrels as it will with Titanic barrels.
