Suppressors Is This Fitment Normal?

Curious if this is normal or not.

Remington 700 AAC-SD

The suppressor should tighten on the shoulder; there should not be a gap there like you are seeing.

The gap at top looks larger than the gap at bottom. In my experience, looks like your barrel threads are not concentric to the bore or the face of the barrel is not perpindicular to the centerline of the bore. Either way risks baffle strikes.
If the suppressor is bottomed out before the 2 mating surfaces meet, the threads are too long/not to spec.
None of this is ideal.

I bet there is no root or relief cut behind the threads. There should be.

Could you please clarify?

Either cut a relief behind the barrel threads , or remove the first 2-3 threads in the can or, like most folks use Belleville washers and not worry.
Belleville washers can be had from many quality fastener outlets.

edit to add, every 700 aac-sd I've seen is threaded that way.

Thanks for posting that wfjames22. I couldn't get to the image link from my phone.

Thanks for the responses. As you can see by the ring it mated up to another rifle just fine. I will be dropping the tactical off at my gunsmith for new crown and threads tomorrow.

Thanks again.
