[QUOTE="tobnpr, post: 2160661, member: 68758"] I don't see where thread pitch/consistency comes into the equation, other than the slight variation in thread "crush" that you might see. I'm referring to where the thread leade originates on the barrel, and on the receiver. This alone determines the orientation of any random location on the barrel after installation in relation to TDC of the receiver. Some even incorporate clocking the muzzle "up" (I'm personally not sold on this, but others are) into this as well. The companies that make pre-fit shouldered barrels for the precision M700 clones work together with those manufacturers to time their threads, and adhere to other specs for the receiver that guarantee correct fitment of barrels- orientation, and headspace- on any of their actions.
