I actually had them do a gun of mine.
From a little distance it looks very good and I received many positive compliments about the gun, BUT, I wish I hadn't had it done, as it's laser engraved when you tilt the gun the face of the engraving is flat and shiny, I just didn't like it. My gun was an MX8, I always wanted the scroll engraved SC3 type 100, so got this done as I really got on with the gun, having owned it for 9 years so thought I'd just keep it and have it engraved, which was a lot cheaper than getting a genuine SC3+ I would need it to be the same spec as my gun. I sold the gun about 3 months later, I did get £5k for the gun, which in a plain action was about £3k private so wasn't unhappy with the sale.

Yes ,listening to a barrel maker doesn't happen often enough. I'm sure what you have forgotten about your trade exceeds the knowledge that some people claim they have .

Thanks for your dismissive comment
Fact is you don't know why it was bored out.
Consider this perhaps
If the original barrels were 28" and he decided to have 30" fitted
And for easy maths say each barrel weighs 500grm
And the barrel is 3mm thick(for the maths)
500gm divided by 30 to get the weight per 10th of a mm, is 16.6grm per 10th
By back boring from 18.5 to 18.7 that's 2 tenths off the weight of the barrels, that is 66.6 grams of weight removed.
If you accept the above then take 30" barrels, each inch of each tube weights 16.6 grams and there are 4" of extra tube with a 30" barrel over a 28" barrel, by boring out the barrels you could reduce the weight to the original 28" barrels .
The other reason to Back bore is to reduce felt recoil.
Fact is you don't know why it was done , but thanks for your constructive comments.

I use a Beretta ugb-25 for sporting, it has an adjustable stock, weights 9lb, I like it, it hasn't improved my scores, nothing will do that, but it's interesting to shoot
-
Maybe he had it bored out to lighten the barrels a bit to improve the feel???
-
I have a franchi al , if you pay for transfer you can have it, it ain't pretty, but it's yours if you want it
-
Still Available

A franchi raptor, I think mine was called, very well made, benilli stamped in the barrel, they can be had for very little money as they're not a "big" name, personally stretch a bit and buy a good clean Beretta A303. I think the best value autos are the fabarms
