I have a 20g Fox SW. Bbls are uncut, but the bottom 1/3 of the hour glass-shaped fillet between the bbls at the muzzle has been pushed down into the space between the ribs. The ribs are totally intact and ring true. I'd like to fill the hole in and was wondering if I could drop a bead of solder in then stone it flat.
My concern is the melting temp of the solder used originally to lay the ribs. Last thing I want to do is melt that and face having to get them repaired/relaid.
I bought a tube of silver solder last pm that was marked low temp (420), but I'm thinking if Fox used lead/tin it probably has an even lower MP. . . I wanted to check w/ you all before going down this road. How would the pros do it?
Any advice?
Thanks,
Bill
