What to do without the cutter?
« on: February 28, 2013, 11:16:56 AM »
My .357 barrel has internal threads and the screw in "cutter" for the shot loads. Forgive me if there are better names. But what do I do when I'm not using it? Leave the threads exposed? Didn't get this barrel new so I don't know if I'm missing something but it doesn't seem like there's much room for anything to go in and protect the threads. Not that anything will contact them but it sure seems like they will get powder residue caked in them.

when you fire without the choke
tube, just clean the threads with
a rag or some q tips and apply a
light coat of choke tube lube or
anti seize lube before you reinstall it

Pretty much what I've been doing. I just use a little powder solvent on a brush. Thanks
