I was wondering if there was enough material in the barrels that you could bore or ream them from 20 to 10ga. Yes i suppose you could cut down the barrel and stock of a 10ga Db Pedersoli but the Howdah is already ready to go was my thinking. Could you get a replacement barrel for a Pedersoli Db 10ga and cut it down and adapt it to a Howdah? I just thought it would be a neat idea.
The barrels are to thin to ream oversize, you might be able to go up one gauge size. Any muzzle loading shot gun could be cut down and new pistol grip stock fabricated.
The 20ga Howda is a hand full with 50-60gr loads. I would consider a 16 ga to be about the max for reasonable comfort.
