[QUOTE="BUSTINDOGS, post: 3044748, member: 49798"] I want to put a new barrel on a vanguard action which is a metric thread. I had the bright idea of using a thread die instead of changing the gears in the lathe to cut metric threads and going through the process of cutting metric threads. I plan to make a fixture to hold the die so I can start it straight and turn a nice little run-in feature on the barrel to also aid in starting it straight. Anyone done something like this before? I have used dies before, but never one this large. [/QUOTE]
