I'm more puzzled by Allen's avatar.

I doubt the person even knew they did it.

I also doubt they knew as it is subtle compared to this photo. The Damascus pattern makes it less visible. I would guess factory heavy 2 3/4 inch loads with standard 12k psi pressure in 2 1/2 inch chambers.

Here is a set of 12 GA VH barrels I purchased from Brian Dudley in this condition. I'm guessing on these factory 3 inch shells in the 2 3/4 inch chambers, as the bulge is four and a quarter inches out. Now whoever did this you would think had to notice the first one and you wonder why they did it again? Maybe the excitement of a gobbler in front of them?

p.s. I don't think the GH is worthless now. It still has some value although a fraction of the before value.
