Threading tikka fluted barrel?

[coast range]

Karl currently has my tikka putting a shoulder on it. Hoping to get in in the next 2 weeks. He said about a month and he received it on the first of this month. Have an ultra 7 I’m dying to thread on!
I didn’t want to mail mine but he was almost half price and no one local was only going to thread 5/8 with a shoulder.

Kampfeld does great work. You won’t be disappointed and you’ll also be glad you spent a bit extra to get the 5/8 shoulder done. It’s really. Ice not having to mess with little adapters.

You guys have me worried. As I am reading this the gunsmith called and said my T3X 308 lite is done. 1/2" thread.

Nothing to be worried about. This deal gets overanalyzed repeatedly.
I’ve got a bunch of light barreled rifles threaded to 1/2-28 I run cans on with zero issues.

Thanks PC356. I picked it up and it looks like enough metal to hold a can.

I just got mine back from Kampfeld and had him cut it JUST short of the flutes and add the shoulder, thread to 5/8x24. Looks fantastic and great communication.

Lets see it!

I’ve had several Tikke superlites cut and threaded to 1/2 28 for suppressors and never had a problem. I’m actually in the process of getting 2 more done.

Not the greatest pics but here ya go. He offered to cerakote it but didn't have the exact match on hand... I told him not to worry about it since I am terrible at deciding what I want and usually rattlecan the whole gun a few times a year anyway lol. He did bead blast it and it's a decent enough match for me. It'll be just fine for me when the can goes on it (if SilencerShop ever gets a Hydrogen in stock).

Does anyone know how the shoulder is built? Are they a washer that is epoxied on?

Why hasn’t a decent machine shop cut premade tapered shoulders for sale? Wouldn’t take much to make them at 3 standard barrel measurements. Red lock tite or Rockset is not magic

Thank you for the video.

Squaring the shoulder true to the bore would be difficult without a lathe.

It's been a little bit so I may be a little off, but I want to say it was around $170 plus shipping. He's pretty responsive to email or phone calls, if you let him know what you want done he will give you an exact quote.
