question on bedding the barrel extension into the upper

What thickness stock did you use?
Any issues keeping the shim material in place while working the cold extension into the heated receiver?

I have two rolls of it one says 5 thousands and one says its 10 thousands. Just depends on the extension what thickness I use. Mostly use the thinner one.

I haven't had a issue with it moving while installing the cold barrel mainly because I use a couple of small drops of gel super glue to hold the seams down and keep it tight. I do this before putting it in the freezer. You dont want the ends to over lap each other and you dont want the seam on the top/bottom always put it on the side. I also cut a small section out of it to fit around the indexing pin.
