[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 2005451, member: 38048"] Head bolts get torqued in the 140 pound range. That's more than double or even triple what a barrel goes on at. Regular anti seize is perfectly adequate for barrels. I watched BR guys put them on for yrs with just a little bolt lube. Not saying head stud lube wouldn't work but it's probably overkill. All my personal rifles go on at 30 pounds and customers hunting rifles go on at 60 and never had a galling problem with any lube. Even on my aluminum action faces. Shep [/QUOTE]
