[QUOTE="tobnpr, post: 2056122, member: 68758"] Plug gage is def another way to do it... It's a no brainer that way- if the plug gage fits smoothly, without excessive play- all you need do is cut the tenon to the same specs. Thread fit here really isn't critical as I mentioned- in fact, many think that "tighter" threads (I've read where some are so tight they have to lap them and think that's a good thing) are preferred, and that's just not the case. If it screws on smoothly without binding and with little play, you're good to go :) It's precisely faced shoulders on both the receiver ring and barrel shoulder that really matter. Nice job. [/QUOTE]
