[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1948190, member: 24284"] Your 'friend' was making good sense The Bat HR has a 1 1/8" x 16 t.p.i. thread in it for the barrel to screw into. And, it is about the 'meat' around the chamber. Most use a 1.3" to 1.35" dia. 'shank' for Lapua based chamberings, as well as a 1 1/8" diameter thread. Makes for a good shoulder to shoulder lock-up of barrel to receiver as well as provide the 'safety factor'. If I remember correctly, the Bat HR has a 1.35" front ring diameter (on the outside).
