I just removed the barrel from a brand new Tikka T3. It seems to have a 1" (Actually 0.995) tenon with 16 tpi. I was please with that, as I expected metric threads, and the customer wants it to be a 6.5 Creedmoor. Do my measurements look correct to those of you who have taken one of these rifles apart?

Rod, I got curious and checked the thread you linked to and ended up watching several of your youtube videos on stuck case/bullet removal. Learned a lot! Thanks for sharing that with us gun first-graders.

Yeah, that grease press turned out to be one of those hare brained ideas that actually turned out to be a money maker. I reluctantly admit that I have built far more expensive tools that only got used once or twice.
Even a blind hog finds an acorn if it roots long enough I guess. LOL
