I shoot Beartooth cast 25 caliber sized to .314 in my Browning model 53 32-20,

Have you read all of Paco's articles on the 32-20. If not you will find them quite interesting.

Re: Who can yank off a barrel, hotblue, and tell me what cal

Now that is an early car/truck gun. As Gunny said: cast the chamber. Also slug the bore. You will then know what it is chambered in. I wouldn't do any refinishing to the exterior it's exceeellennt as is. Heck this might even be known as being made by a known maker. It has lots of character.
