[QUOTE="Willys46, post: 1185174, member: 6536"] I have also seen if you have to cut to much off the barrel to get threads, the muzzle end can swell a little. making your muzzle end bigger than the rest of the barrel bore. So at the very last 1/2 the surface tension get less. and can cause accuracy issues. My smith always wants to put the largest threads possible to maximize the meat left on the barrel. I have always used 5/8X24 threads and have had one barrel open up at least one pin gauge size. That dun never shot as well after the break was installed. With that said, I put a break on EVERYTHING!
