I sent a set of 1877 twist barrels to Brad several years ago for refinishing. They failed his pressure test with a hole from a dent repair in the muzzle third of the barrels. I had no clue it was there as I had not shot the gun yet. He had it welded up and refinished them. They look and shoot great. You would never find the spot if you did not know exactly where to look.

So IMO it is definitely possible with the right smith, depending on the details of the issue and where the damage is.
