Tikka Sako muzzle thread size help ??

[s2000ron]

Hi I bought this tikka sporter T3 used in EE in a cadex chassis
It came with a muzzlebrake installed (P.A M11) but wanna buy a cadex mx1 muzzlebrake in green to match My chassis so wanna know the thread on my barrel to order from cadex here some pics
I measured the outside thread

It's most likely 5/8-24 but you should borrow a thread gauge to make sure.

FWIW you probably mean Precision Armament M11....

I have a 5/8-24 muzzlebrake too but its smaller in diameter vs my tikka threads I look online and maybe its a M18x1 but wanna make sure if someone has a Tikka or Sako and can measure like I did to compare and send pics to here

Here 5/8-24 mesures .51 what I have on the tikka with the M11 is .637 so bigger

Tikka Sporter and Tactical models are M18X1. They work with the Sako TRG muzzle brake too.

Crashman Are you sure 100% that my gun has a M18x1 if that is the case I will order from cadex right now

I guess you’re right Crashman so

I’m buying this I found in black gonna look nice too

I’m sure it will fit

Crashman is correct. The TAC-A1 came with the 5/8x24 thread not the Sporter or the Tactical.

Somethings goofy with your caliper measurements. If the barrel threads were 18x1mm the inch conversion would be 0.708 and the ID of the brake you removed should be around 17mm or 0.669".

Maybe mya caliper sucks but does the other muzzlebrake the one 5/8 is correct?

That measurement is wrong too. ID of a 5/8x24 thread should be around 0.585" by my calculations.

If your caliper is zeroed right, that ID measurement is around where 14x1mm thread would be.

I tried with my old caliper and gave the right size bc I didn’t know I had to zeroed the electronic one lol
So I have M18x1 just ordered mx1 in that size ;-)
Thanks for helping me brother
