gordy1 0 Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 As long as I can't find a flush fitting one, I'll leave my barrel as it is. Maybe a local metal worker can make me one. A tiny thread protector ruins the whole 'heavy barrel look'. If you do get one made up PM me and I'll have one as well, it might bring the cost down Quote Link to post
Mac7117 1 Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Hi, I have a CZ452 16" varmint. Because I swap moderators now and again I use a Ruger 1022 .920 muzzle break as a thread protector. Looks damn silly on my gun however its only on to protect the thread. Now as I understand it (and I may be wrong) but I believe the new CZ455 HB has a .866 diameter barrel. So if my maths isnt totally off, I reckon that would leave an overhang of .69 mm (quick change to metric there). Which is maybe barely noticable. The brake was was bought off that well known auction site, from an American gent for £25 or so (by previous owner of my 1022). Just a thought chaps. Quote Link to post
