Moust guns have that information on them, persuming your gun is a double or singal barrel, Remove the forend of the gun and dissasemble it. Look beneath the barrel to see if its engraved into the barrel, anything over 1900ft lbs is normaly magnum proof. If you have no joy then try these

The cheapest way is to take it to your local gundealer or if you live in a good area that has proper gunsmiths take it there any decent gunsmith love to share the knowledge they have.
