As I've been waiting for my SWFA 3-9 to ship, I decided to kill time by snagging a new (to me) barrel for my Tikka T3 off the classifieds. My Tikka is a T3 in 30-06 and I'm spinning on a 6.5CM barrel from a CTR. I put the barrel on and it closes on a Go gauge and won't close on a No Go gauge, but all the barrel markings are about 180 degrees off. On the one hand, the tools that are actually designed to confirm headspace are telling me it's fine. On the other hand, I've never done this before and that doesn't look quite right.
Is this something to worry about, or am I pole vaulting over mouse turds?
