dpcdYou will have a very light barrel if your 257 is the standard light sporter like usual. I would want a heavier barrel, personally. It will kick.

craigsterIt might be too thin, esp. @ the muzzle. JES has a minimum wall thickness, he told me once what it was, but I CR(S).

HowardThanks for the comments. I have barrel thickness covered. This is a heavier barrel 257 with plenty of metal. It was at Jim Dubell's shop. Unfortunately he passed away before he got this project done.
