The reason I have followed this thread, is because I felt that with a little effort, the project would come your way. Of this era, I have never seen one that could not be brought back to being a shooter. There are just too many things that are very forgiving. I have shot some really bad bores and although they are not my first choice, they will still shoot good groups and will kill. ….
The problems with pitting, is that it cuts patches. This will eventually effect your accuracy as well as leading the pits. "When" you finally go to the range, be sure to read your shot patches and see what you have to work with. ….
Have fun and;
