[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1534316, member: 2736"] I would never use a 7/16 thread tenon on anything. The 1/2" is The lower limit and preferably larger if the bore dictates it . If the barrel is to small at the muzzle, for a thread that meets the requirements mentioned earlier, a clamp on brake is the only option. The older Weatherby's had super light barrels for carry and are normally not suitable for a brake. Unfortunately some of the rifles that need a brake the most are the ones with the very light barrels and not much can be done with them except load the butt stock up with lead shot, and that normally defeats the purpose for the light rifle.
