I set it up in my Bridgeport mill and open it up with a 1/8th carbide end mill very carefully. .135 opening is what I made my .44 carbine and also a bit deeper on that one. Looks like a "U"

I dont have a mill to do that but one thing that helps me is to turn that stupid white diamond around so its not starin ya in the face when you shoot.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......
