Thanks again everyone who has offered advice and direction on this. I am inclined to head down the road of restoration if the barrel can be saved. I took some measurements of the barrels now that finally had some free time.
Chambers 2 15/16"
Left and right bore 0.620
Left and right choke 0.030 down to 0.590
Left and right OD from mid way to about 2" from muzzle 0.694 and the end .695.
Simple math wall thickness is ~0.375.
As stated the barrels are Titanic steel and the bores themselves are super clean. What would be a minimum wall thickness the barrels could be taken to?
