Good points. Yes, the wall thickness of double rifle barrels built with proper weight distribution can get pretty thin up forward. That is why slow burning propellants in Nitro Express rifles don't make sense to me - the difference in burn rate from the original cordite is too great. The pressures in the thin forward sections might be significantly greater than was ever the case with cordite. Peak pressure alone rarely tells the entire tale.
