There is a section in TPS that states the "true bore" was adopted as a standard in March 1892 for 12 gauge. The similar change for 10 bore was stated to have changed a few monts later. The passage states that after that date, a 12 gauge with the oversized barrels would be stamped with an "O", presumably for old or oversized.
