Guys,
Anyone know the thread specs for the SMLE actions. Can't seem to locate it anywhere.
Cheers...

Shank..... OD .997",Projection or length .687". 14v TPI. Extractor cut on the left for the SMLE and on the right for the No4 or 5 looking towards the muzzle. Head space generally done with selection of the correct size bolt head however can be done by adjusting the shank length if using an unthreaded barrel.
