I'm chambering for a custom action and their print doesn't call out a pitch diameter, just major. They told me to just make it to Remington specs, but I can't Google up anything reliable, and I'm not sure how to calculate it. Do most people just cut them by test fitting? If somebody had the specs, that would be great!
Thanks.
 
I ended up cutting them 1.5thou under the 3a spec for a nice fit. The action threads were blasted and CeraKoted before I got my hands on it, I suspect that's the reason I had to go smaller. I'm going to run some 600 grit Clover through them to make sure the paint isn't built up more in some spots than others.
Thanks again.
