me and fruitloop spent the afternoon knocking up some .410 reloading dies for resizing and pressing primers in and out from stainless roundbar...... I then decided to knock up a thread cover/muzzle brake for my .17ackley hornet. I don't know if it will cause any accuracy issues so will have to try it out.

Can you make an "invisible thread protector" that you put on your rifle when the mods off and it looks like its not screw cut :)

 

Like this one ?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fruity did one for me a while ago, but I cant find it, I am sure my Mrs has been in my room tidying up. She says she hasn't seen it but I don't believe her :lol:

 

:lol:

You'll notice the hmr one is totally different to the lr thread protector he's made me

You'll notice the hmr is for the heavy barrel
