I have a Brownells barrel vise and one of their #3 aluminum bushings which only has a 1" thru hole. A friend of mine has a lathe and can hone this out for me so I am looking for information on how much to open it up prior to cutting it in half. This will be for a varmint contour barrel on a Savage 112.
The three inch section of barrel just behind the barrel nut has a slight taper starting at 1.057 and tapering to 1.027 at 3" Should I have this honed to this exact dimension? I also have a set of Brownells lead shims in case he can't taper it. What do you guys think?
