Wish I never got the boss, so would like it to just look like a normal finished barrel, I'm looking for something like a nut to put over the threads at the end of it, though I think maybe I'll just leave the threads exposed due to harmonics etc......

If I had to I could have a piece machined for this purpose.


I'd just would find a load that would work with the shorter/boss removed barrel.

replacing it with the CR, I think I'd just save my money and avoid that. I think it was one of those marketing gimics that got me.....its on my .300 win mag, i shoot 180gr from it, they give you recommended settings but they don't give you for every load out there, I figur ejust remove it altogether. that or just leave it.

Also wouldnt exposed threads probably be more suseptable to weather? since its probably raw steel, not blued etc....thats why I was thinking a nut to cover the threads and maybe some lock tite would be the trick.
