    All looks good, although the drill was 30" long I could only drill in 22", the oil and chip catcher stops going in farther. The drilled hole was .501" at the start and .4999" at the finished end, a clean up with 600 grit emery paper and setup to cut rifle with 8 groves and a 1-48" twist. Now it`s rifled and the best one I've done so far, will lead lap with diamond past, fit the breach plug, cut it octagonal, cut slots for the sights and under wedge pins then rust brown to look the part. It`s all go, have a deco at the cut rifled bore.
