    My favorite waterfowl shotgun, steel barrels 65mm chambers with 1 oz of bismuth at 1100 fps at about 1/2 of SAMI max pressure. This one happens to be a Husquvarna. If they still lock up tight and aren't pitted too bad it should work fine with low pressure loads. I wouldn't be afraid of a Damascus barreled shotgun if it were in good condition, many fine old English Damascus barreled shotgun go through the proof houses every year and are reproofed for smokeless loads.
