Great job on compiling the list.

awesome work on barrel nuts
X-Caliber barrel's also have one that is nice.
good information
Nuts are nuts, they are a non moving part and only have one job. There is nothing wrong with factory barrel nuts despite contrary belief that they are not square. If you have ever seen them manufactured, you could see that they could not be anything but square and true. After market nuts are for nothing more than cosmetic enhancement.
Contrary belief? Who’sOriginally Posted by sharpshooter
Where are all these people with “contrary belief”? LOL! I’ve never really read anything other than aftermarket barrel nuts being for aesthetics. I said precisely that in multiple threads, as have many others. My contention is the claim of caring nothing of looks, only how it shoots, yadda, yadda. Humans are expressly visual beings. We care very much how our possessions appear. We enjoy things which are aesthetically pleasing. Our homes, our cars, our cloths & shoes. And yes… we care how our firearms look! I believe saying “I ONLY care how it shoots!”, is disingenuous. And rebuking others for being honest about making & enjoying their firearms looking a certain way is quite telling.I for one, enjoy the differences in our various rigs. I enjoy very much, seeing member’s builds with their own styling cues. If every one of our Savage rifles was built using factory parts, it’d get pretty boring. But that’s just me.
Re read the article, Dave.

No, thank you, that’s quite ok. I’ve read it in full already.
Well the barrel nut is only one variable of many. Hopefully, the barrel itself was threaded true to itself, the recoil tang is perfectly square and flat, but just as important as the nut, possibly more important is the receiver trueness. If I was going to invest in a true nut and recoil tang I'd also true the face of the receiver.
