[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 339269, member: 12"] If the brake is "fitted" it will be timed! If you set it up with a set of $25 headspace gauges it should be right back on the money. Index marks will help. If you take the brake off, you are going to change the barrel harmonics and load may need to be tweaked. Your barrel will tell you. You might get away with it and then you might have to do major tweaking. Odds are it is very likely you will need to tweak. If all you want the brake for is load develoment, buy a $30 past pad for the shoulder and skip the brake. You will normally have another set of zeros and load development when you put the can on anyway. Better get used to it. BH [/QUOTE]
