I've used one of those lathes before quite a lot and I thought it was good...better than a very similar size one from China. The hole through the headstock is a bit bigger than an M250 which helps. I machined a 80mm diameter by 300mm (ish) long steel bar on it on two occasions with no problems. It struggled when I tried 120mm dia steel though. I don't know how big you're thinking?
