    Die to recut barrel threads.


    Hoping someone could post a link to die that will recut savage barrel threads. And, will the die work on both large and small shank barrels? FYI, I do not have access to a lathe. Thanks.

    Brownells has both sizes. The small is 1.062 and the large is 1.120 I believe 20 threads per inch. In brownells description it will tell you what it fits. You will need 2 does as they aren't even close in size.

    RUMs are like woman in Stiletto heals, you know they are going to put you in the poor house, but that has never stopped anyone from pursuing them.

    You can rent a small shank die thru 4D Reamer rental.

    Are you "chasing" or "cutting"?

    If you are just repairing some damaged threads, a thread chase file may be a much better bet. I use them all the time and work and they can be had from ENCO for like $15 rather than an expensive die and 1 will fit both shank sizes as a file is not diameter specific only pitch specific. FWIW both shank sizes are 20 tpi.

    Small Shank is 1.055"-20tpi
    Large Shank is 1.120-20tpi

    ...and if you buy one get this type to clean up both internal and external threads.

    Exactly what I was thinking there Bill. Didn't have a pic handy. Thanks.
