I've asked the auction for the weight of 15625.
-- 15964 - the 4 bore rifle with 26" barrels weighs 18 lbs 1 oz
-- 18860 - the 4 bore wildfowler with 42" barrels weighs 18 lbs 12 oz - it has original stalking safeties

Donald Dallas tells me (posted above) that he has never seen a UK cartridge longer that 2 1/2" in the 19th century.

If it were bored out, I'd bet it was done in the USA long ago, probably the reason for no reproof marks. Note the $260.00 hand written on the label.
