Been shooting damascus barrels for 10+years. I look at them the same way as fluid steel: make sure there is enough wall thickness, no deep pits and use appropriate ammunition.

The REAL problem with damascus barrels is they make fluid steel barrels look pedestrian.

My W.W. Greener has 'Laminated' barrels that were NEVER final proofed (proved?) at either the Birmingham or London Proof Houses. I use RST cartridges without hesitation!
