[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 519372, member: 25383"] the actual thread cracking was with Remingtons. There's very little difference between the root diameter of a 1.05-20 thread and a 1.06-16 thread. They are both sharp vee threads, and a few years back several folks were have cracks form according to Lilja. On the otherhand they were probably using generic 416 stainless steel, as most are still using to this day. A 17ph4 barrel might be a better fit. I don't see the real worth to gain 150fps at best, over a .300 Weatherby (a .300 Jarrette or a .300 Ackley are very similar cartridges). gary [/QUOTE]
