[QUOTE="59FLH, post: 2979604, member: 108480"] Threading and chambering a non NFA rifle barrel on your vertical mill is impossible. If your a CNC guy and have the financial resources get a HAAS tool room lathe. I don't do barrels for a living so I don't have the set up on my turning centers. My favorite lathe for my personal barrel work is a Hardinge HLV-H. A HAAS TRL is basically a CNC version. The setup is the same, you will just do your bore, face, and turning operations via the control. PS. I have a couple HAAS tool room mills, I love um. [/QUOTE]
