If you have one, roughing that out on a bandsaw would be a good start. That way you just need to clean it up.
I agree you need to use a band say to rough that out. A slitting saw would but a pritty havey load on that small mill.
Rats, that's what I was afraid of. Even with a 1mm thick blade?
I have access to a portable horizontal band saw (it's how I've been cutting up the 6' bar I started with) but I'm hesitant to use it on a 4" cut like this. It struggles a bit with the 2.5" square stock so I'd prefer not to double the distance that the blade is engaged.
