New aquisition

Gentlemen, I just aquired a GH 16 O-frame with damascus barrells. It was just too good a deal to pass up. It has some issues but appears to be basically quite sound and, except for a chip out of the toe, very nice in appearance. I know there was a lot of past discussion as to what shells and chamber pressures may be suitable in these 1901 production barrells. This is my first damascus and I didn't pay much attention in previous posts on the subject. What pressures may be acceptable assuming the barrells are as sound as they appear? Where can I buy low pressure shells at a reasonable price ?

I bought the gun at Cabelas in Hamburg, Pa. today for $650. It couldn't have been there long or one of you would have found it.

Thanks for your help!
