Do you have the 2 different Photobucket attachments/apps on your PC?

I could not see these photo's either,
I added these 2 app's to my plastic box, and I can now see these photo's.

I went back to older sites/posts with photo's that were not showing and now they show up.

Bob,

I can get a custom made reamer for the new L-W barrel blank I just ordered.  All I need now are some dimensions to do the drawings and off to the machinist the drawing goes.

Are you saying that I need to machine the barrel to the pellet version in your graphics?  It looks like Crosman machines the barrel like the bullet version of your drawing.

For pellets, the length of the chamber is not critical.... It can be as drawn (common in airguns) to nearly as far forward as the bullet chamber.... with the chamber ending just forward of the front of the barrel port.... The biggest difference is that for bullets you need a very shallow leade angle or they will be difficult to load.... Pellets have a smaller head diameter (barely large than the lands in some barrel, like the LW), and the back of the head is very short.... so there is almost no effort required to push the head into the bore....

Generally, as long as the chamber is not too long.... you can shoot pellets in a barrel chambered for bullet.... but bullets may be difficult, if not impossible, to load in a barrel with a short chamber intended for pellets.... Since when you are chambering your own barrel you can stop the reamer anywhere you want.... if you may at some time want to use bullets, go with a reamer intended for that.... Really the only difference in the reamer for pellets is that you don't need that 1-2 deg. leade angle, it can be 30 deg. or even 45 deg.... Again, you can stop the chamber wherever you want to.... I would go just past the barrel port for pellets.... further for bullets (how far depends on bullet shape and length)....
