[QUOTE="sureshot21, post: 2652263, member: 19426"] I’ve chambered a couple barrels on my lathe, it requires patience and the right tools. Make sure whatever lathe you buy has a large enough spindle bore( through the headstock behind the chuck) to pass a blank through and can have a spider attached to the rear. This greatly simplifies the process. Lots of videos on you tube, lots of books. Brownells has a video series. This is a good one.
