I am looking at a 2.75" 577 double it has hammers is this capable of using smokeless powder? Sorry if this is a simple question but I have no experience with doubles. Also if this can handle smokeless would it be possible to further ream out the chamber so it could use 3" cases?
 
Graeme Wright or on this forum Cal Pappas is your man.

I believe these rifles are best used exactly as the manufacturer intended, the proof marks will tell you what it has been tested with, feel free to ask for help interpreting them.
 
It doesn't appear to have damascus steel barrels and the make is francaise d'armes et cycles de st.etienne

You have the wrong person. I have no idea what you are talking about..

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...
