Help needed

[Dean Romig]

My WAG is about 0.0115" as a minimum... or should I say that for my own personally safety I wouldn't shoot an old sxs that had less than 0.0110" at the juncture of the chamber and the beginning of the forcing cone.

I have a Damascus 0-frame 16 gauge GHE that Oscar Gaddy measured at 0.0063" and wrote to me that it "is probably safe to shoot with pressures of less than 7,500 psi."

Are you sure about your decimals? I can't believe anyone would suggest six thous safe to shoot.
