Default Lifter, 1875

I just got this gun in the mail. I’m darn happy. It has over .110 at the chamber and and over .035 min. wall thickness. Plus, minty shiny bores. The gun is in excellent original metal and wood condition and is tight. It seems to have a replacement firing pin made from a screw yet I have a firing pins enroute from Brian Dudley.
I’m lucky with this auction gun. One issue is my Galazon brass choke gauge shows 12 gauge “cylinder” and “loose cylinder”. I don’t have anyway to measure the basic bore diameter, yet it’s my understanding the basic bore diameter will be wider than a modern gun. What are the bore diameters of the the members’ guns in this era?
