I think Mr. Bell showed that damascus barrels are pretty safe. That known, why does everyone say shoot low pressure loads ? Because we don't want to shoot the action loose and to show some respect to 100+ year old guns. It's better to be safe than sorry. I keep my loads under 7000 psi. One thing not discussed was low pressure means less deformation of shot = better patterns. Paul
