Thank you for the information! Also, I measured the dent, it's actually 14 1/2" from the breach. Also, while looking down the bore it does not seem to warp the reflections. In fact the plastic wad residue might just be coincidental. Think it's ok? I could make a mandrel and try to tap it out, but I'd rather not do that, especially as it seems to be only a couple thousandths of an inch deep.
Also, where do you buy the RST or Polywad shells from? Ballistics Products has RST 16 gauge shells on their website, but doesn't list the shot size. Polywad I can only find on their webstie with a min. order of four boxes. What about Gamebore's "Traditional Game" loads, are they low pressure shells?
And here is a picture of the area from the lugs to the latch.
Thanks again,
Chaz
