[QUOTE="bonedoc56, post: 2670353, member: 31660"] Have a Q.LLC "Full Nelson" suppressor on my Tikka t3 in .308. It seems that there is a lot of empty space between the shoulder of the suppressor to where the threads start. When I screw it on, its DT, there is only about 1/4" thread engagement on the barrel. Its about 3 1/2 turns. Seems to me thread engagement should at least match the diameter of the threads with is 5/8". Worried that this is not enough. Should I have the mounting side of the suppressor CNC'ed down to eliminate some of the empty space. This would functionally increase the length of thread engagement on the barrel. I can't seem to find anywhere how many threads it needs at a minimum. Industry fastener standards usually say oit should match the diameter of the threads. Thank You [/QUOTE]
