[QUOTE="edge, post: 185930, member: 5030"] OK, let me see if I understand the situation correctly. You have threads that are of a 60 degree included angle, but not perpendicular to the action centerline. If this is the case, then make the threads wider, but don't go deeper. A thread only holds along the flank anyway. What is important is that the matching thread on the barrel and action are the same angle and pitch. The NON-mating flanks are not part of the action-locking equation. The fit will be very loose on assembly, but they will lock up tight and your barrel threads will still be standard. Just a thought. edge. [/QUOTE]
