On an even more expensive route, would be getting it sleeved to 12 gauge - but as Zippy mentioned, the costs start to outweigh any benefit at all. IF you know the chamber, (and can get the firing pin issue resolved), look at Polywad or RST for low pressure "vintager" loads. There are designed to be shot in old guns that fired either BP or smokeless cartridges. They have them in all of the shorter lengths. Smokeless powder was already out by 1908, so depending on your barrel, they might be able to make this old girl and "now and again" shooter.
Folks at the "Vintager" shoot here in the East shoot OLD guns all the time with these loads (their guns have been checked and found safe to shoot).
Good luck!
