    Tikka T3 Lite or Super Lite Muzzle Diameter?

    Cross posted...

    For any of you who own a T3 or T3x lite or super light, can you tell me what the outside diameter of the barrel is at the muzzle? 30 cal would be the most helpful, but would be similarly curious about 22, .277 or .284 (yes, even your 7-08 ) too.

    Have you threaded the barrel on your rifle? If so, did it have to be a 1/2-28 and then bore out the muzzle device, or was there enough meat to thread it at 5/8-24?

    Thanks!
    Its an expensive hobby, but more expensive when you try and convince yourself you don't need what you really want.

      T3 Lite .308 22" SS barrel: Muzzle diameter = 0.631" (16mm)

      I viewed it as a hunting rifle barrel, so did not have a need for a brake. Very nice, light barrel. I don't think there is enough metal to install threads without negatively affecting the crown diameter. This barrel is not great for extended target shooting as POI starts to move after ~5 rounds, even at a rate of 1 min/round.
