[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 2218065, member: 87243"] I'm not sure I would even take that step personally, having to put a 1/2x28 threads on a .264 diameter muzzle with a magnum chamber doesn't seem like the best idea for a precision rifle. [MEDIA=youtube]CUm_YXzJJOU[/MEDIA] May or may not have an effect, but to me it seems like a trade off of a belled out muzzle would offset any gain from a muzzle tuner in the accuracy department. I prefer at least 5/8x24 for up to .264, and 3/4 for anything bigger if possible. It will all vary on muzzle pressures from different loads, some may work fine without issues, others you may get an expanded muzzle. And the effect on accuracy, I don't know, I haven't personally tested it. Might do very little, might do a lot. Just something to consider if your only option is to go down to a 1/2" thread diameter.
