    Good news. I think some people thought I was saying it would crush the barrel. What I was trying to convey that once the torque increased, the nut could distort enough to grab the barrel and it would turn with the nut closing the head space. Obviously i was mistaken. After looking at how the flats are short the wall thickness was not as thin as I thought. post pictures of the finished product please.

    BTW, what is the distance for flat to flat. 1.250?
    The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
