Stuff is hidden inside metal bars, you just need to dig it out of there.
This part of the job is not my favorite, drilling long holes.

How long of a barrel is it and may I ask what you're going to use for broaching the rifling
Wish I had access to some good machines myself I'd be going hog wild these days.

Oh sorry Wayne, should have explained better, I was drilling the breech blank. Barrel is ready made match barrel.
Couple of more pics on work done today.

Do you design your guns first or just make some parts and see if they fit? Looks very purposeful, what kind of power levels you're after?

If you are asking do I make drawings first then yes and no. I have been a prototype machinists and making a lot of one off pieces, usually something broken and no prints or a napkin drawning brought to me.
I design it in my head, I can see the picture and how it goes together. But usually too lazy to actually turn on the confuser and cad something out.
I know and remember the dimensions I need, and just program that at the cnc, I dont have a atc on my machine so I usually go by one phase and one tool kind of principle.
Mostly have used mazatrol for programming and no cads available on what I did at work so I have not used cad and cam so much that it would speed things up.
But that all about to change this fall, I'm starting mechanical engineering studies.
Well power levels are around 300J on the last .223 so about the same on this one, but I made the upper completely diffrent, I want a detachable lock for easier cleaning.

You do nice work Marko, like the look of your receiver.
Curious about the step machined onto the barrel. Machining the bolt locking lugs onto the barrel? If so....cool idea.

Thanks Al, you think pretty much the same way I do, yes locking lugs are going to be machined on the
barrel.
And detachable cocking pin on the bolt so it can be removed easily.
I'll post more pics when I'll get more done, thunderstorm today so dont dare to risk my cnc controller and drives.

Very cool idea Marko. Makes a lot of sense, and as far as I can recall, it's something I've never seen used on an airgun before.
Will await the pics...

One more phase done, tube radius to the bottom of the receiver.
Now I'm at the point where CAD would be helpfull, but still too lazy to use it, so sharpie and calipers it is.

Thanks Matthew,
You and me both, there is some new features designed and this is the first time I'm testing the ideas so it will be very interesting.

Napkin cad, sharpies and calipers seem to be doing just fine IMHO.

Well now that engineering school started I dont have as much spare time, need time with the kids also. So progress will be slower from now on. Sorry about that.

I've been silently following all of your projects, Marko (with great admiration, I might add
) and have to say....no apologies required! Family should
always
come first.
Besides....you just can't rush perfection!

Thanks Todd,
Well its kind of apologize to me aswell, I want to see this one group. There is so much new features that its either a winner or a complete washout. It should by all standards be perfect but you never know until you squeeze that trigger.

Not again.....What's in the water up/over there? I can no longer call myself a machinist, I am now just a hack, maybe if I move to Finland I will learn how to be a machinist? LOL not even that would help. Another fine piece of work from your area of the world. Beautiful women, beautiful guns, beautiful country but.....I hate fish.3 for 4 is pretty good in my book.
