Would use DOM for your crush tubes. What sort of treatment are you giving to the quill shafts?

I thought I bought DOM from Industrial Metal Supply, but am not seeing it on the paperwork.
Here's what I got in the paperwork for the AISI 300M Alloy:
Heat Treatment
AISI 300M alloy steel is normalized at 927°C (1700°F). It is then heated at 872°C (1600°F)
followed by oil quenching oil and tempering.
Tempering
AISI 300M alloy steel can be tempered at (600°F) to achieve 300 ksi strength.
I still need to do some research on times, but it looks like our furnace will do what we need to do.
