    Hi, As you can see I have threaded the barrel end ready to fit in the receiver and as I said it will not fit on my face plate, but with right low down cunning, it did!," there`s ways and means". So with the angle plate bolted to the f/plate, and the rec/block clamped to that , it took all day to git it running true to side, face, and hole. Now I can cut the thread and test the barrel for fit, I think and if not will just have to remove the tailstock. Will take it real slow, Cheers, Homebrew.357.
