topper 32" 12 ga owners
« on: December 24, 2008, 05:45:22 AM »
Can someone please tell me what the outside diameter is of the muzzle of your topper 32 " barrelled 12 ga.  I am thinkin about getting one and get it threaded for chokes but it has to be .850 outside diameter or bigger, thanks

Don't know if this will help but the outside diameter of my 28" (27.5 actual) Pardner is only .690" according to my Lyman calibers.  That is a 12 gauge with a modified choke.

Sorry.  After reading MSP Rets post I went back and remeasured.  It's .869.  Very close to MSP.  I knew there couldn't be that much difference between my 28 and his 32.  His is full and mine is modified and that could be our difference.  Or it's my old Lyman calibers.

That is pretty close between our 2 measurements. I used a 1" micrometer and checked it for zero before the measurement....<>....:)

I always check my zero but I think the small amount of difference could  be the two different chokes.  A tighter choke, such as your full should have a smaller OD then a modified.  That is talking about non-screw in chokes though.

thank you, looks like plenty of room to add screw in chokes
