[QUOTE="jrock, post: 1841371, member: 78569"] Good tip about the tape on the barrel. Must under appreciated tip IMO. I prefer the electrical tape. It will have residual pressure while I scrape the excess off. Then it has no force, only keeps everything aligned. When I cut it off after the epoxy has cured, it is almost slack. I've put a 0.001" dial indicator at the end of the barrel and torqued down the action screws and have not seen the Dial indicator move. I choose my methods based on that. There a bit of technique to it all though. [/QUOTE]
