Sir
SCORCH has been trying to clear this up = listen to him.
Where in thunder does a person obtain a commercial barrel blank with no markings on it. I would not use the thing.
Most ALL blanks, basic barrel blanks, have the caliber, twist and breech or muzzle stamped on it. If it does not, it needs to have, was in the junk bin or some other shady origin.
What steel, 4140, 4130, or stainles grade is it = not knowing that I would not use it.
I am sorry about being so direct, but this is going nowhere.
