I just completed an extensive research project and two part story about the subject. I have a 16 bore H&H (the only true Paradox) and it sure doesn't look like your figure. With only a couple of inches to measure I didn't even try.

I called asking about it and they don't do it any more, as they only did about 5 a year. They used 1/60 twist and the rifling was about .008 deep. So if they reamed out the chokes, leaving only .008, if the shot pattern was at all uniform it would be rather open.

Ross Seyfried mentioned it in the DGJ and Handloader articles on his hammer paradox. don't have the issue #'s right now, but it was when he unveiled his regulating load that basically everyone follows now. Sorry for the seriously delayed response.
