I won't pose as a gunsmith, but I like that Erik only has the minimum hanging out of his chosen chuck setup.

How's this for the minimum hanging out? And no its not a barrel lol.

So! You make the cut using the tailstock and take the pic after sliding the tailstock back?

I can't tell that there isn't a center there from the pic..

No,not at all. It had a 11" ID to start with, didn't have a center that big. I only posted the pic because I saw a little humor in it being the complete opposite of having the "minimum hanging out". Sorry to go OT a little.

You don't need a big center. Center drill a plate and push it against your hanging out part with the tailstock. Can we see a better photo of the chuck not turning?

Yeah, that would work and its a good idea but, there was no need.
