I just recieved my new Kreiger .260 barrel today. I am going to install it myself. I had Kreiger chamber it with my PTG reamer. I was looking up which recoil lug I wanted and looking for an indicator rod to dial in the bore before cutting the tennon and threads as well as crowning.
PTG has indicator rods listed for use with a chambered barrel and range rods for use with unchambered barrels. Midway does not list any dimensions on these. will the indicator rod work for both ends of the barred or do I need to get both rods?
I will be using 2 indicators on the rod that are .0001 increment to dial in the bore in the 4 jaw chuck. My lathe is already set up with an outboard chuck on the headstock that can be adjusted to dial in the other end of the barrel.
