[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1785101, member: 38048"] Threading your muzzle is a simple job for any gunsmith worth his salt. And your concerns of the action whipping around doesn't happen. The barrel will be held in a 4 jaw chuck about an inch from the muzzle and held in a spider at the chamber end of your barrel. A spider is like a mini chuck with 4 moveable contact points. So your barrel will be held at 2 points around 18 to 20 inches apart depending on how wide the headstock is and will run true with no wobble. If you don't like the looks of thread protectors have the smith turn it down smooth to your barrels thickness and you can barely see it. A mini rubber strap wrench will get it off if it gets to tight. If you keep it lubed it won't get stuck. Shep [/QUOTE]
