CHECK YOUR THREADS!!

You can read about the influences of non concentric threading on point of impact shift HERE. (http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_2_130/158403_Barrel_threads_are_barrel_threads_____or_ar e_they__POI_Shift.html)

And Huges will do a fine job, no doubt. The concern is with rifles that are "factory threaded" for a flash suppressor. Often times, they aren't concentric to the bore and you end up with POI shift, or worse, baffle strikes.
