Barrel threads is there an industry standard or do different manufacturers have their own thread dimensions.

Half a dozen tenon threads probably cover 90% of modern rifles.

I guess thats why an imperial lead screw would be prefered. I am waiting on delivery of books and stuff by gordy can not remember the second name off hand but apparently he is an American gunsmith guru.
I spent to day being lashed to death by aluminium swarf.
Another fun shed day.

We all do things a little differently because it suits us and our equipment. Gordy is no exception but, he's one of the few to commit his technique to DVD for all to see. I don't do it like Gordy but his rifles produce results and that's what matters.
