Hanging the barrels and hitting it with a quarter will make it ring if they're not loose from each other. It's only a test to see if the ribs are soldered tight to both barrels. You can tell quite a bit by the condition of the gun. Is it good, then maybe it was well taken care of. A bore light would tell you a lot. I have about a dozen Damascus barrel cartridge SxSs and shoot nitro in one or the other every week, three times a week. They were made to shoot - go out and have some fun.
In a 12ga 70grs/3F and 1oz of shot is a nice light load. It will bust skeet targets.
