    Chamber casting material ?

    Does anyone in Canterbury have any chamber casting material they don't intend using ?

    I have just picked up a Remington #2 rolling block action and barrel that has obviously been a project rifle.
    Some of the bits are lost.
    Its been re barreled with a modern re purposed barrel that looks to be around 357 mag / 38 special size.
    I'm putting my money on it being chambered for either of those.
    The barrel looks very tidy.

    But would like to double check before I push on with the various repairs required to make this functional.
    Small casing so not much material needed.

    Looks to me like someone was trying to put together a #2 baby carbine as the barrel is 17" long
