How are you pressing it in?

Shop press

 

[Tweetybird]

I used a piece of all thread before I had a press

The tricky part is going to be getting it indexed properly and I dont have a headspace gauge.i am going to chamber a spent cartridge and press barrel in until extractor clicks on the shell. Unless you know of another way. It's probably my last build or I would buy the headspace tools. Kits are crazy priced now.

Paid 79.00 for this kit back in the day matching numbers and all

Have you seen the tape method? That’s what I would try without a HS gauge.

Thanks man, that's my AM monster with a 1 driving 4 tube amp and a D104 TUG8. Bought it from our member Sonar a while back, wouldn't trade it for the world.
