lifetime... bought it almost 30 years ago, makes it a nonissue, I'm technically hunting for free nowadays except for tags. And gas. And food. And gear. Oh heck, who am I kidding? Still paying for playing...
Well I think you are right and I'm wrong the but actual wording is
"must have a license valid through deadline day of that draw" So I was guessing it meant day of the actual draw. Ive had my lifetime license for 15+ years so I haven't paid much attention.
I don’t mean they ran the draw separate, just had an issue with running cards on the first round max point tags. Everyone I know that got a charge today had enough points to where they were pretty sure they’d draw and everyone that had charges yesterday said they didn’t think they were gonna draw.
Well if they had issues it looks like the may have resolved them. 27pts for me next year....but I knew that. Sure had hopes of luck for my son though....nada.
Did a quick search of the net. While there are not many manufacturers that offer an adapter that steps down to a smaller thread the adapter does exist. It could solve your problem for far less money and time.
5/8″×24 RH (female) to 1/2″×28 RH (male) Thread Adapter – SKU#080 - Hughes Precision LLC
If you go this route, keeping the thicker thread on your barrel will have more strength.
Robert Whitley did a study posted on Accurate Shooter that causes belling of the muzzle due to insufficient thickness. (must admit this might not be observable unless the rifle shooter is using it for bench rest competitions)
