If a magnum load is loaded into a non-magnum firearm (standard loads are designed to take a man down), increase damage by one point and go the next level of penetration, but the weapon is 2% likely (cumulative) to be damaged per shot.
I'd be inclined to up the percentage to about 5% cumulative - those old weapons weren't exactly made out of the best possible steel and certainly weren't designed for the higher pressure of a double load of powder. Chances are they're going to fail and fail quickly, not to mention spectacularly.

The rest, besides the weights as you've mentioned, looks good.
