Model 70 Thread extension new model

Does anyone know what the thread extension on the new model 70's is? It is not the old 1-16 thread size. Is this metric or standard?

Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo.

D Humbarger,

I just bought one that has the new style trigger and it looks like it has very fine threads. I can see the last two or three in the locking lug area. Don't the WSSM's have a different thread also. I hate to pull the barrel and fine out its metric.
