[QUOTE="timo308, post: 2634072, member: 89721"] You say they used crap steel, but I've noticed over the last few years that all of the button rifled barrels i thread at the nuzzle with anything smaller than 5/8" of an inch diameter will open up a couple of tenths of an inch in the area of the bore that they were theaded in, regardless of brand. I never see this happen with cut rifled barrels. It doesn't seem to happen as long as the diameter of the thread is 3/4" or larger. I have also seen it show up when slugging a barrel under areas that are fluted. For this reason I tend to recommend to my customers nowadays that are going to install a thin barrel and have it threaded for a can or a brake to go with a cut rifled barrels even though i mostly work with button rifled barrels. I would be interested to know your thoughts on this subject as you've got some experience in the barrel making process. [/QUOTE]
