I would measure bore and choke and back track with that information. Pretty much "over stamped".

It's my understanding is if there's two digits the third one is understood to be a three. So you'd have 325. But you have three digits so 125 out of 510 [ number of 8s in a 1 1/4oz of shot ] is a really open choke. Check your bores and choke with a inside dial mic to be sure.

I do not have this shot gun in my possession or I would check them. The seller said it is choked improved cyl. It has 32 inch barrels. I have never seen a three digit shot count numbers. I am thinking the original chokes were opened up at some time or another and the numbers re-stamped. Is there a chart that show numbers and choke designations? Thanks,,,
