Wow! That's a real find.

That's a dang good price & useful lengths. Looks like spoils of shot-to-pieces oil industry. I see screw pump rotors in the background.

Oh wow... that 2.250 stuff has "Canon parts" written all over it .

One thing to consider if your going to buy some, 4140 bar is sold both in hardened or annealed form (Chrome-Molly gun barrel blanks) and no mention of which in the add...they are a very different breed of cat to the hobby machinist...Commercial machinist have a better chance of having adequate machining equipment/cutters than we do LOL.

That looks expensive for smaller bars but cheap for the 3" bar. I can sell in Calgary 4140 or 4330 bar if anyone wants for $1 per lbs. That is cheaper then he does for anything under 2.4" in diameter.
