[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1534028, member: 94491"] So what are your thoughts on those 7/16" threads on the Kimber 300wm? Wouldn't that only leave about .040" at the muzzle? You are basicly saying all 308's should be 5/8 thread or larger With your calcs a 5/8× 24 is even too small for a 308? ---.150+.150+.308=.608", minimum diam of a 5/8x24 thread is .562-.5742 (unless my chart is wrong) --- youd need an 11/16 thread to be safe by your calcs, right? Maybe the chart I'm reading is wrong [/QUOTE]
