Here's the link to the Teague lining article https://www.vintageguns.co.uk/magazine/barrel-lining. Quite a few issues are mentioned. Steve Bertram was the US rep for sending barrels to the UK to have them lined.

Thanks so much Ken for posting this.

They told me they would lengthen chambers and do some honing. I went along, but these barrels will never shoot again safely without sleeving or tubes

[Bill Murphy]

Mills, why go to the expense of chamber work and honing? The tubes will be what you are shooting out of.

[Mills]

I guess to make the tubes fit better

[William Davis]

Talked to Briley this morning. To fit my 16 G hammer gun, they machine the tubes to fit the bore. Chambers have to be 2 & 3/4 inch, tubes index depth on the front of the chamber. Fitting 190 dollars over the cost of Tubes. This is not needed on a number of modern factory guns, others it is needed. Short or full length tubes same work required.

May get a 3rd opinion on my barrels . If posable watch the method used and examine through the bore scope myself.

Do what I would do and tell Briley to k/m/a and install the tubes in my barrels. $190 to bore out my chambers is ridiculous.

No way would I have anyone bore out my chambers. I’d keep the original barrels and find and fit another set that I have more faith in.

My barrels are shot, according to several known experts, otherwise I would have looked at other options.

And mine may be depending on which expert I listen to. Nice condition O Frame set of Hammer gun barrels rare bird.
