After reading the excellent article by Sherman Bell on violent proof tests of Damascus a few years back in the Double Gun Journal, I would give Damascus bbls the edge against fluid steel bbls of the same era.
All things being equal, condition wise, I would go with Damascus, every time.
BTW, I go with low pressure loads on any fine SxS, no matter when it a was manufactured.
