[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 2160639, member: 93138"] I think it would be more a question of what the cutting tool service interval is. At least with regard to thread size. If they're running the inserts to the ragged edge then they're likely getting a large variance in thread size. If they have found the insert service life that results in a low thread size deviance and stick to that interval, then I think your idea would bear some investigation. Were I running that production line I'd want the lowest deviance (ease/speed of barrel fitment) that I could get from the longest insert life (economics) that will give me that low deviance. It's a question of where they put the balance. If it is all robotic production then the thread timing could also be pretty close. Not that it's important to this instance, but still....... [/QUOTE]
