When a friend and I rebarrelled our Savages, we turned the barrels down against a Go gauge and tightened the nut. No No-Go gauge or tape involved. The Savage board says a normal tightening without a hammer or cheater will stretch the threads about .0015". We have never had any trouble with case separation or chambering of neck sized cases.
