Joe’s .257
Here is the start or Joe’s .257. I had to sand blast off what ever the coating was on the frame because it was thick and I was worried about putting it in the mill and not being square.
Made the barrel bushings today. Because the frame is so short I made the front bushing part of the frame extension. This will extend out 4.75″ and will get a end cap that guides the barrel also.
I had to put it in the mill because the front of the frame wasn’t even close the square.
Trying to make everything that I need to in the 3 jaw before I switch to collet chuck. I need to finish the 2 valves I have and then I can start cutting barrels.

Thanks for posting this Dyotat, I’m looking forward to following this build. You’re on the cutting edge of high power airgunning. Thanks for helping make the sport better for everyone.
