[QUOTE="Winkfish, post: 3063528, member: 98068"] For those that thread barrels for a living. What is the minimum diameter at the muzzle you like to see assuming that one would place a suppressor on it in the future? Is there a minimum shoulder dimension you like to see to ensure there is enough meat at the end of the barrel to support either the suppressor or potentially a break. Based on a few individuals I spoke with regarding a recent barrel, the smiths preferred a minimum of a #4 assuming that the threads would be 5/8" on a 7mm barrel. I don't know if that will help guide you decision on barrel contour, and thus potential barrel fluting. [/QUOTE]
