As for getting the barrel threaded, who would you trust to do it correctly? I’ve also heard many gunsmiths want to cut the barrel down some to install the brake, any pros/cons with that? Definitely going the limbsaver route first, but have a feeling I’ll also end up doing a break as well. Thanks for the help guys! no one local you will have to send it out. By the time all the works dont its going to be 1/2 the cost of the rifle to put a brake on it. Also expect 2-3 weeks down time to send it out have the work done and get it back --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/the-official-gun-thread/242496)._
