I'm sure you know by now that I agree 110% about Comp=InCOMPetent

Do you have new factory pr's to measure? I'm pretty sure that you'll come up with something like 7.38x if you do

Pretty sure that I've read over and over about the 7.38 thing, but haven't measured for myself. I had kept my stockers, but not sure if I still have them...if I can dig them up, I'll measure for myself, but if you've measured them out at an average of 7.395 that works for me

I measured tip to tip and they also have a hole drilled through them which would explain 7.395 average the range was 7.395.5 -7.394 most averaged 7.395 though. I wouldn't be surprised if the material missing made it 7.400 or just over.
