I emailed you the pictures, at least I think I did, I don't know how the hell anything works on this damn tablet. If they didn't come through, or something is wrong let me know and I'll try again.
Tim
Son just where in this picture would you like to be?

Haven’t seen them, Tim. Try just sending an email, no attachments, and I’ll send one back.
Should clear the spam filter if you do that.
Best, Ted

Very nice Tim.
I'd be happy to own that.
I am curious why it was reproofed in both 1985 and 1986, but it passed both times, so it doesn't really matter.

Tim: the pic Ted attached is very small and I couldn't enhance it adequately to read the proof marks and date codes. If you would like, send me a full size, high resolution close up as a jpg attachment, not buried in the email, to drewhausemd@yahoo.com

When in doubt send a load out to have it tested for pressure. Best money you will spend this year. I have a standard load based on Fiocchi hulls trimmed to 67Mm. Pressure and velocity are known and I have them in shot sizes from 7 to 9's. I trimmed 5,000 hulls and loaded them all over a weeks free time. They sit boxed on the shelves and are my basic go to load for all my 12 double needs except non-toxic needs. The only thing I load in Fiocchi hulls is this single load so just be sight I know that the load is safe for all low pressure uses.

The plan is card and fiber wads, I have PB and 7625, and the load data is in LUP. I'll just keep pressures for that down around 7,000 too, I would think that should be safe.
Tim if you have supplies of both PB and 7625, this reference will offer you numerous loads - down to pressures that are amazingly low. my one comment regarding the gun is that there are older bore proofs 13/1 (right tube), and a faint 12 (?) on the left tube. that could be a tube originally as tight as .719", and last time through the process measured .736" - and that's the exact scenario that makes me keenly interested in knowing wall thickness. i have several guns in this same general condition - nicely cleaned up bores - but marginal wall thickness. i think it smart to take that in consideration with load pressures. http://pdf.textfiles.com/manuals/FIREARMS/imr_reloading.pdfvery handsome old gun, use it in good health.

How'd you do that Geoff!?!  Very interesting, and I've never seen that.
