[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 942574, member: 1290"] I meant torqued too tight. It can happed from around 15 foot pounds and up. On big threads it might take a hundred to constrict the bore. There is no set rule. It happens when it happens. For a truly seamless fit it usually needs the joint sanded with the barrel. How tight it is has little to do with that. Don't be impressed by seamless fits when they are sanded. That is simple. Be impressed when a stainless brake is seamless up to a blued or coated barrel. That takes a sharp eye and a spot on dialing in on the outside of the barrel. [/QUOTE]
