[QUOTE="ShtrRdy, post: 1562871, member: 40852"] Hey Kai - thanks for the update. Glad to hear that the vertical installation helps. Thread-locking the barrel nut seems like a possibility. Using a witness mark after you turn the barrel on to spread the Barloc seems like a good thing to do. When you were testing this, did you fire multiple shots to see if the barrel needed to settle in to the re-install? I was thinking about one other thing to consider trying. Since the Barloc loads the barrel/action threads by using a spreader, I was wondering if it would be better to measure the gap on the spreader instead of the torque on the screw to arrive at a consistent thread loading?
