[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1312102, member: 25383"] I knew a guy that built one off a mandrel that used expanding sleeves like they use on grinders (think they came from Hardingh Brothers). Extremely accurate and extremely repeatable. He had a set of sleeves that were in .005" steps for different bore diameters, and worked off the bolt raceway. How well did they work? I saw him do a Remington PS action in about an hour and a half. Then turned a male master thread for the recut thread. Used that to cut the barrel thread off of three wires. Once he had the first barrel cut, he could cut a dozen for a switch barrel without ever doing anything else. His PS in .308 shot a comfortable mid threes, and his loading setup was pretty flakey. gary [/QUOTE]
