Damcus barrels remained popular for years after fluid steel came out. Some makers would only put them on higher grade guns due to the cost to manufacture
As for the bores, i seem to remember older damascus bore sizes where a little larger than modern standards, maybe these tube were from old stock.
Or maybe -ifthe ordered as a trap gun -the shooter spec'ed it that way.
