SEAN3513 7 Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 no....but it might need re-crowning Quote Link to post
matt_hooks 188 Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 no....but it might need re-crowning It would definitely need recrowning if it was shortened or the original crowning was damaged in some way. Of course a proper gunsmith would know that, and I wouldn't recommend trying to thread a barrel yourself unless you have the kit to make sure the thread is concentric to the bore (NOT the outside of the barrel!)
