[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1101382, member: 24284"] A 2 flute bottoming tap as it can be used in more different situations than a taper tap can be. Buy high speed if you can. But for just 'chasing' threads carbon steel will probably be OK. Might be cheaper in the long run to call a local gunsmith and ask what he'd charge to 'chase' that hole with his tap. Any gunsmith worth his "salt" will have the commonly used gunsmithing taps. [/QUOTE]
