[QUOTE="Kiwi Greg, post: 2864082, member: 13456"] You would be way better off with a 3/4 x 24 thread on a Sendero barrel with a 40 thou shoulder than going down to 5/8 x 24 The bigger the thread the greater the surface contact area on the shoulder, 40 thou on a 1/2" thread is miles less than on a 3/4 Unless you are using a 24" Crescent to tighten it a 20-30 thou shoulder on the bigger threads works great Some go down to 10-15 thou to get as far away from the bore as possible I have 15 different threads available in a couple of my brake models to accommodate most barrels sensibly [/QUOTE]
