    Shank Size


    Is there anyway to know by caliber and/or serial number if I have a small or large shank?

    Not always, I have a 7mm wsm built on a factory small shank barrel. Not sure how many years they built wsm on small shank though before they decided to beef it up.

    Easiest way to tell is the nut on the Large Shank is shorter vs. the Small Shank.

    I can look at the nut and tell you what Shank you have, fell free to post a picture of it.

    You can also measure the barrel with calipers at the barrel nut. If it's over 1.055 its a large shank, or measure the barrel nut length itself. 5/8 inch is a large shank. 7/8 is small.
    Banning a gun will not solve what is a mental health crisis inflamed by incendiary rhetoric on social and television media. The first amendment in this case is less precious and more likely the causal factor than the second amendment.
