Thanks Mike, my bad math,wrote it down wrong.Should have been .215.Comparing this gun with 2 others I have,it is a little stouter in the chamber area externally,and seems to have a little more --average - wall thickness.I still want to be sure there aren't any thin spots with this being 3 inch chambers.I have seen some pictures of guns that have been opened up and the cutter was not centered and the barrel wall getting really thin and blowing or bulging.I never plan on shooting a 3 inch shell in it but I'll bet is has seen quite a few with the stock being replaced and the current one being pinned.Doughting but not knowing if this was factory,any idea what would be standard wall thickness on a factory 3 inch gun.Would they have come ina #2 frame,or would they have been built on a #3.Unfamiliar territory for me.I do like hunting with the old doubles.If I need to shoot big shells I have a couple newer tens I can grab.
