Hi folks,
I have a question about threading/crowning the muzzle of a rifle or chambering a new barrel. I've seen pictures of what looks like a precision ground pin that slides into the bore, and you indicate off of that as opposed to the outside diameter of the barrel. This makes sense to me, because the bore of the barrel may have a little bit of run out in relation to the outside diameter of the barrel.
Now, I've been looking for these pins for quite some time. Are there pins specially made for gunsmithing, or is it just a piece of precision ground rod?
Thanks,
-Rok
