TC Venture Barrel Thread spec

[gzig5]

Does anyone know the barrel thread spec, diameter, pitch, and shank length of the TC Venture? Found a barrel that I want to convert to another action but need to know if there is enough meat on the shank to fit the new action without cutting the entire tenon off.

Did you ever find the answer?

I don't know the tenon specs but I do know this gunsmith has done some barrel work on Venture in the past. He may tell you what you need/want to know.

BTW, I did notice the OP is four years old.

I did. The hard way. I bought the barrel, but I still haven't gotten around to fitting it, maybe this spring if I can get past some other projects. I can dig it out of the pile sometime this week and will post results. I bought it to put on a Sako L461 in 17-222 whose chamber has been butchered. This was the only 17-222 barrel I had run across that wasn't worn out and was within my budget. I didn't cut it up so it must have measured up OK for what I intended

@Wnh4538
Found the barrel in the pile and took a couple measurements. Tenon is .825 long, thread is 1.055 diameter at 16tpi. The threaded section is only .550 long which surprised me. I think the fitter cheated a little in not threading the whole tenon or he goofed and removed the mistake. Either way it is strong enough.
