From the (excellent) pictures on the seller's website, the barrels were 458 win mag originally and re-chambered to 450#2. The barrels are not original to the gun.
It's very nice...

The barrels were not originally chambered for 458 Win Mag, because the rifle was made in 1906, and the 458 Win Mag cartridge was introduced in 1954! Why would some one fit a pair of chambered for 458 Win Mag to a 1906 WR double then re-chamber them to 450N2? Sounds like a long way around the barn to me!
