Mike, The Government allowed all bores under .5225 to be unlined, all over that size to be lined to .50 Yours has been lined (3 grooves are the lined bore & 6 groove is original). Both utilized the 50-70 cartridge. Being lined is a good thing if you are going to shoot it as the larger bores can produce some terrible groups. Only shoot lead bullets, nothing jacketed as only a few jacketed rounds will take the bore out!
Regards,
