B,
That sounds like a solid plan. I'd ask for about .010", take a couple .000" under rather than over. Shoot it and pattern it, then adjust from there if needed.

I used to have a shotgun with Cylinder in the left and Modified in the right, a previous owner had switched position of the triggers so the front would fire the left, but they hadn't bent the triggers ... |
