Hmm, might just be me, but, damascus would seem to be a whole different kettle of fish, then either a Superposed (Browning variety) or, come to think of it, my post war Darne. Damascus, being a lamination of several metals, might have different issues with bulges, or dents. No sure what hard and fast rules would apply. Perhaps marrying the NDT technician's daughter would be in one's best interest?
I know some of you guys love 'em, but, I've stayed away from damascus, and will continue to do so in the future. Not interested in them for everyday use, and that is the catch with all my guns, bulged or not. I'm a SAAMI spec kinda' guy, I guess, save my old Tobin 16. Eley VIPs have been a good load for that old gun, with it's heavy wall steel tubes. Who was "Demoya" anyway?
One Easter egg hunt for ammunition is enough for me.
Best,
Ted
