[QUOTE="WiscGunner, post: 1562366, member: 97288"] First things first...I don’t own a barloc. Obviously repeatability is synonymous with consistency. My understanding of the barloc system is the torque applied the the screw seperates the barrel from the receiver thus applying the same type of force on the threads as would be if it was torqued against a shoulder like a regular barrel. If it were me, I would do your proceedure as but tighten the barlock much higher than the minimum. Then I would place fine witness marks on the barrel, nut and barloc. Then I would disassemble and clean the barrel and nut thouroughly. Then lictite them together with their respective witness marks aligned. This will create a shoulder and eliminate the need for the go-gage. You can certainly test this later. Now test your results with the exact same torque and witness mark alignment. [/QUOTE]
