[QUOTE="tobnpr, post: 2159056, member: 68758"] At the risk of repeating myself, I'll repeat myself. Only if you don't care if the ".308 Winchester" or whatever is engraved into the barrel ends up at the "top" of your barrel when torqued to the receiver. Even if the boltface to receiver ring dimension is within a few thousandths on every receiver-shouldered pre-fits will not (unless you get very lucky) time correctly when installed on the receivers. There is no consistency to where the thread lead starts on barrels unless they're made for the custom actions designed for this as I mentioned previously. [/QUOTE]
