Heads up, if it will even work...

[Joe S.]

This is mainly a heads up, but also curious if it would work...

There is a 7x57 barrel on this thread for sale for $50:

I dont understand stubs and stuff as i havent read about them any, but a friend mentioned doing it once so i was just curious if this one would work... Not cause i want to try. Just curious.

Here are the two stubbing links from the FAQs, I would assume the barrel would work, but don't know that for a fact since I've never done one.

  Thanks Joe for the link,    I registered and bought the 45-70 barrel this guy had.      jedman
 That barrel could work for a 7 x 57 stub or some other 7 mm chambering, just depends how long you want the finished barrel to be and how you want to do the job.

Here's another link showing another way of stubbing.

Interesting.
That kinda takes away the simple and economical aspect of a Handi. But i would try it i guess if i had the equipment and know how.

Glad that worked out Jedman
