Im looking to buy a lathe to use for hobby work and would likely try to chamber a few barrels. There is a SouthBend precision model A (cat # 13442) in my area for a reasonable price. Does anyone know the through hole size and have opinions if this would be a suitable lather for chambers? Another one in my area is a Jet 1240py. Both are reported to be in good condition although I have not looked at them yet. The South Bend has the collet set and a few more tools. Any information is appreciated.
