Shotgun Backboring

[Whaledriver]

Hey guys new to the forums and had a question. I recently purchased a Hi Standard Riot Gun and it needs some help. For a late 60s gun, it’s in pristine shape but someone let the bore get slightly pitted. Are there any recommendations out there for local gunsmiths that do good back boring work? I’d try it myself but I don’t want to screw up the gun and it’s a little beyond oil soaked steel wool and cordless drills.

Pattern it first.

Yeah I went out once and shot it at 15 yards. No birdshot at this range. Buckshot seemed ok pattern.

This guy did some really good work on my 870.
