It depends on your gunsmiths lathes spindle bore and tooling. I have one lathe that can't, and one that can by using a spider. Check with smiths around your area.
I am not a fan of digital, just personal preference. I use 12" Mitutoyo daily and have 3 or 4 sets around the shop. anytime i can buy a set right in a pawn shop I do.
there are set dimensions for the bolt faces but i don't have them in front of me know and I dont trust my memory. the 6.5 Creedmoor uses the most common one, but ask the mfg to be sure!

I don't have pictures but we used a Hardy Titanium brake on a Proof CF barrel and loved it.. Why spend the money to drop weight on the barrel and then add it back in the brake. Riverman Gunworks had them last time i checked.
