The heads will not be engraved in that barrel so if Randy has an accurate setup with a poor fitting pellet that is an amazing feat.

Pellet head size is 0.300″ and so a barrel of 0.294/0.300″ would suit the pellets better vs a 0.302/0.308″ as the TJ’s is made.

Depends on what you want to spend.

I have the 1640 version of this lathe with the VS. I wanted the 2.25″ thru hole.

Gorgeous lathe!

That would be the one!
