I'll bet that cast iron is fun to machine.

I can honestly say this is the dirtiest job i have ever done the machines get covered in fine black dust that is almost impossible to remove, when I have finished with the iron I am going to have to wash down the machines.
Future builders may be better using alloy for the barrel and piston and iron for the liner.
But the iron cuts well and is stable and it adds necessary mass to stop vibrations. so we cant have it both ways.
