I’ve got a Marlin 45-60 guide gun off to get threaded. I asked that they thread it in .578x28 because that’s what some of the other suppressor hosts I have are threaded in. I looked at the new Marlin made by Ruger. The factory thread is 11/16x24.
Is .578x28 too small for 45-70? My other guns are 45acp. Now I’m concerned that taking that much metal off will be too much and I’ll blow it apart when shooting. |

As a first cut, my opinion is that the outer diameter is marginal, but probably okay. I'd need more information for a solid decision.
I would not shoot high pressure loads, especially with heavy bullets. I would opt for the larger thread to keep as much wall thickness as possible. |

So the factory thread parter sound good but I haven’t seen a thread adapter for Huxwrx or the booster for Silencerco (that’s what Huxwrx uses) in that pattern. What is another common pattern I could use for this that thread adapters are generally available in?
It looks like these are my options: .578 X 28 (AC24) 1/2 X 28 (AC25) M13.5 X 1LH XL (AC626) M13.5X 1LH (AC26) M14.5 X 1LH (AC27) M16 X 1LH (AC28) M16 X 1RH (AC29) 5/8 X 24 (AC30) 9/16 X 24 (AC31) 1/2 X 36 (AC57) 1/2 X 28 XL (AC59) .578 X 28 XL (AC1346) 1/2 X 28 SN (AC1756) I realize some of these won’t work at all for 45. This is just the list they have. I do have a m16x1 left. It looks like that’s a little more metal. 5/8x24 seems like it could be a better option too. Would that work better? |

The 5/8ths provides less wall thickness than 11/16ths.
Without a good estimate of the pressure at the muzzle it's not possible to give better answers. I edited my post above after I realized I wrote "smaller". Wrong direction! |

Well, I called them and told them to change it to the 11/16x24. I’ll figure out away to get the suppressor mounted. I figured it better that thank blow the end of it out.
