My brother is wanting to get a @DPT can fitted to his rifle and has left me in charge of getting it sorted while he's overseas.
Instead of having to send the whole rife up, I'll try and figure out what the thread is. I've attached a few photos that might help?

Try a half inch unf nut on it
Looks too fine for 1/2-20 and if those calipers are correct then its more than likely 13x1
My 14x1 thread protector kinda screwed on the thread but was too loose. Anyone in Palmy have a 13x1 thread cap I can try?Quote:

Set your vernier to 12.7mm and count the threads and x by 2.
I got 13 threads per 12.7mm. The last few mm is mainly the shoulder.Quote:
