Paul,

There is no possible way to come up with a finite number, but based on the years of production for the Model 1905, and when Winchester made the change to Proof Steel (early 1932) versus the older Nickel Steel barrels, the total number is going to be something < 300. That does not account for any mail order replacement barrels that may have been made.
