[QUOTE="Three44s, post: 2324786, member: 43573"] Thread pitch and shank diameter is what interfaces between the barrel and receiver. A Remington Sendaro is a Remington 700 and its thread pitch and diameter on the barrel and by association the receiver is different than a Small shank Savage. The other member with a barrel that just catches a thread needs to access just what barrel they are dealing with. A large shank? Or a barrel for another brand of rifle? Or something damaged? I have done a lot of Savage barrels and once they are cleaned up and lightly lubed they go on by hand until they are just about jammed by the barrel nut. One thing crossed my mind however, did that member loosen up the receiver wrench? It is wise to loosen the receiver wrench to finnish removing the old barrel and to start the new one.
