I used the emery cloth method on an old LC 10 gauge I picked up really cheap starting with 220 grit and working to finer grit finishing with 600 grit and took out pits that looked like craters. I wasn't worried about exceeding safe barrel wall thickness because these barrels are built like a light artillery piece. Surprising that what appear to be ruined barrels can be brought back with relatively light polishing. Advantage over back boring is that yo can stop as soon as the pits are gone without worrying about taking out any more materiel than is absolulty necessary.
