I would like to know more about chamber sleeves, if there is such a thing.

When done it is basically soldering in sleeves to the chambers to reduce the gauge down to a smaller gauge. It is similar to the installation of gaugemates or briley tubes, just without the tube in the bore.
I personally would never do it to a gun, it does not make much sense to me and I would think the performance would be hindered some. Tubing the gun with brileys would be a better solution in my book.

The only time I ever heard it done that made any sense was a 14ga had it's chambers sleeved to 16ga.
