New barrels,should have known, didn't.

Silco do barrel blanks, about 2/3 the price of chambers.

Worth thinking about if there is a next time.

I used a silco blank when I converted my s200 to a .20

For the uninitiated, what needs done to change a ‘blank’ into a usable barrel?

[bucketboy]

A lathe, possibly a mill and it finishing in some way.

Thank you all. I don't think I will have to do it again. Thanks Bucketboy I had completely forgotten about Silco and will keep them in mind. I will go and remind myself what they do now.
Cheers.

lots.

Its way cheaper to buy a factory barrel if you can.

It needs to be machined to fit the rifle at the breech.

Then screw cut if you want.

Then it has to be blued or finished to match the rifle.

Then fitted.

So unless you have all the equipment each stage can cost £££.
