Damascus/Modern Shells

[Trey Miller]

Question for everyone...I prefer to shoot a 16 ga with 2 3/4 Fiocchi high brass 6 shot shells for grouse hunting. (Please don’t respond arguing about my load of choice. I find I wound and lose much less grouse when I use this load.). I digress. I currently have steel barrels on a 1 frame. I was considering purchasing a gun with Damascus barrels. My question is can you shoot these shells in Damascus barrels safely? I would not be targeting shoot with them. Would it matter if the chambers were altered to handle the 2 3/4 shells?

Thanks,
Trey
