Hi,
I have a barrel I bought that is loose on my frame. I have read the FAQ and mostly understand how to fit it.
My question is in trying to determine the correct amount to add to the lug. Can I use a gage across the barrel, between the barrel and receiver, to determine the amount to add to the lug? I can close the action with a .010 gage but it will not lock up with a .011 gage.
If the above works, I assume that I would add .010 to the lug and then a little filing would be necessary due to the thickness of the epoxy.
Thanks,
John
