I would say most likely correct if letter says 25 1/2. Would like to see letter.

It is in the books as a 25 1/2" gun but I do not have a letter. Just kicking tires for now on this one James, it would be a neat little grouser and an oddity at that barrel length.

Kinda unusual for you getting down to 2/3’s of a yardstick

I thought I read in The Parker Story that if a barrel was within a 1/2 inch of the recorded length than it was most likely original. I have barrels on 2 my Parkers that are 1/16 to 1/8 over the recorded length and one that is 3/16 under the recorded length. The termination line on the shorter length looks very similiar to yours with probably less than 1/16 of a inch from the line to the end of the barrel.
