[QUOTE="tobnpr, post: 2247016, member: 68758"] "Too loose" is definitely not acceptable- but limited play is fine and preferable to gnat's *** tight threads on the verge of galling. Dave Manson told me this years ago when I was learning this process that the threads just bring the parts together. It's the shoulders that align them- and having the barrel and receiver perfectly faced is of greater importance than precise thread fit. Why? [/QUOTE]
