Howa 1500 thread size
I own a Howa 1500 300winmag and want to purchase a silencer. Does anyone know what the standard thread size is of the threaded barrel from the Howa factory for 300wm?

America is a very big market and they have standardized on this thread size for most guns with normal profile barrels.

Some of the smaller calibers e.g. .223 rem, 6mm Creedmoor come with ˝" 28TPI.

Haha, yesterday this theory was proven wrong. Most 9mmP AR type PCC's have ˝ by 28 thread but my Karris's thread is ˝ by 36.
But why, I wonder.
I am trying to upload a photograph of the threads but this what I get, how do I rectify it?

Do you have access to a vernier or a micrometer to measure the outside diameter of the thread?
To check the pitch, without fancy tools I put a little bit of anti seize grease on the thread and then push a piece of white paper on the thread, this leaves a very nice imprint where you can check, count or compare the thread.
