Thread pitch

Looking at buying a rifle that is factory threaded 11/16 x 24

Is this the same/very close to 18x1 ?

Hard to find a suppressor threaded for 11/16 x 24 so wondering if I could just run a tap/die over whatever thread is larger and get them to line up as 18x1 is readily available

18mm =23/32 so 1/32 larger......cant get my head around running a smaller tap thru the suppresor or a larger die over the barrel not sure it will work effectively think there will be some slop .......but then again someone here may have done this and succeeded

I've done some more research and the rifle is actually threaded 5/8-24 and has an adaptor to run 11/16-24 so that will make life easier. Should have read thoroughly!

For future reference, we do suppressors in 11/16-24

and you do really good ones with the 18mm thread too....THANKYOU @DPT for supplying one to Mr Bradley in Timaru....the 22-250 is a MUCH nicer beast now
