Tired of messing with the .223 brass for the .357 thing. Thinking on running the .357 sig reamer deep into this thing and using some starline 10mm mag brass to make me a fat bullet 9mmDillon carbine. its either that or the odd bullet .338 spectre. or maybe it is just another bastard child that I should not really bother with, but Dang it I need working barrel for this one pistol lower I have.

wait... What ? now i suppose you expect me to actually go through with this. *sigh* guess I should at least order some brass and make some dummy rounds. If it works you know I am going to want to go and get bullet swaging dies in this caliber. Why are my cheap idea's always so costly ?

Maybe we should start up a collection for us.....
Ladies and Gentlemen, It is hard to believe in this day and age, the Age of Prosperity, the time for Hope and Change, the Summer of Recovery, that we have cases starved for powder and primer pockets begging to be filled. Yes, starving, empty cases, while cans of powder and boxes of bullets lay around, under utilized, waiting for direction. Today, we can make a difference. Together, we can eliminate these empty cases and ensure they are filled to the brim and never, ever again, go hungry. So join with me today and give. Give to the Relief Effort- Live On Against Defeat. For just the price of a 6 pack a day, you too, can make a difference. Join RELOAD, and help a starving case. Give direction to a bullet, and most importantly. put smiles on faces. Thank you.

bag of 10mm mag brass on the way, might as well start another project, trouble is my twist is NOT fast enough for SubSonic and the barrel is only 10" so i will have a really goffy pistol but its a start

So, what size gas port do you think this will take ?

Where is that shoulder at? Start with a #43 drill and go from there. I don't see it being much different that the Tok set up, that's what I did for the 9x23 just to keep everything the same. I'm sure you could use a pistol set up with reloads. Got any holes in that brl yet?

Just the one the bullets go through ;D
Actually just slipped the gas block and mid length tube I ordered in for the beo on that thing and thought it looked funny.
I fully intend to do a pistol length system on this barrel. Speaking of which... what IS pistol length ? Say from the face of the extension to the CL of the gas hole ?
the front of the shoulder is 2- 7/8" in front of the barrel extension. I don't recall now why I thought that was a good idea but I had a reason at the time.

3.646" from the front edge of the extension to the gas block journal shoulder. Typically add .270" from journal shoulder to the gas port center line. Check your gas block tho.
