[QUOTE="LRSickle, post: 1327537, member: 18167"] I chamber barrels with the through-the-headstock method. This barrel would be too short to clamp in my chuck and spider at the same time. Soooo, I made an extension out of a huge bolt used to anchor beams and pilisters to concrete foundations. I made one end of the bolt into a replica of my Rem 700 action and screwed the barrel to that. I also planned on parting that end off later and using it as a thread protector. [IMG]http://utahwildlife.net/forum/members/8033-longbow-albums-differnt-stuff-picture12218-dscn0184.jpg[/IMG] Here it is mounted in my lathe. I'm getting ready to part it off at the redneck Dykem (sharpie) mark (1.055 dia). This picture shows the spider with the brass screws in the back.
