[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 426514, member: 4191"] Wow. Now you've cleared it all up for all of our readers with your condescending response. That'll gain you a lot of credibility. Most people that truly know what they're talking about are able to explain it. Maybe you know what you're talking about. You're definitely not explaining it in any manner the majority could understand. You're jumping around to non-relevant items, as if you feel the need to provide us with the credentials of your understandings of all theoretical aspects of mechanics, physics, and the art of marksmanship. Where's the focus on the subject of this Thread? Which is a barrel nut. I follow your discussion on two different barrel lengths. What's it got to do with whether a NUT is or isn't used. The same issues apply to the mega-long barrel versus a short barrel whether the nut is used in mounting the barrel to the action or not. You've talked about the benefits to the nut when it comes to stretching the threads so that the threads on the barrel tenon make better (fuller) contact with the threads in the action. This is the second time I've asked this. What difference does it make if the force used to create the tensile force between the action threads and the barrel threads is the nut on an extended threaded barrel tenon, or the shoulder of the barrel at the end of the threaded tenon? Either system is acting to pull the threaded tenon back out of the threaded action. Where's the magic in using a nut to create this force versus the use of the shoulder on the barrel itself? How do the threads know whether the tension they're experiencing is due to the shoulder on the barrel, or a NUT? How does the tensile force from the use of the nut improve the percentage of action/barrel thread contact compared to the use of the shoulder at the end of the threaded tenon on the barrel, provided that equal quality threads have been cut in both examples. That explanation cannot be so difficult that you're unable to articulate it? [/QUOTE]
