[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1782872, member: 38048"] If I have to do it that way I would cut the tennon and thread while it's in the live center then put thread protector on and make a truing pass on it. Then run the protector on the steady rest while cutting the crown. Still not as accurate as going in the headstock and using range rods or Gordy rods. If barrel is so short I need to take it off I would mount it in my 8 point spider that I use for action truing. It would then get dialed in with range rods. Shep [/QUOTE]
