Gunsmithing AIAWSM barrel and AX compatability

[Jmilera]

Hello Gents, I just bought a new AX in 338 lapua with a 20 inch barrel and I read I cannot use my 338 thunderbeast. The question is can I use my new GAP 338 Lapua barrel for my AIAWSM on my AX that has a 20 inch barrel? I dont want to buy a new barrel when I can use my existing barrel.
Thanks,
JM

No you can't the 338 AX has 30 MM diameter threads and the AIAWSM has 27MM threads.
