I don't understand the .830 bore. It sounds like an eight bore gun that has had ten gauge chamber sleeves put in it. Of course, the gun is in the SB as a ten gauge, not an eight. I may have posted earlier that my #6 frame ten weighs 13 1/2 pounds. That is way heavier than it probably was as an eight, but it has eight gauge barrel profiles and standard ten gauge bores with 3 1/2" chambers.

Mark, Can you give some more information on "Tom's". Is it a cleaner or polish or finish? Thanks, Tom

It is a finish, Tom. It was originally formulated for military use in the late 1800s. Here is a link to the site where I bought the paste from.
