Overview

This precision ground block is intended for gunsmithing tasks that call for piloted tooling, including re-threading the receiver, lapping the lugs, opening mounting holes, and other mill work. It is made from 4140 steel and hardened to 60 Rc, with a manganese phosphate Parkerized finish. For hunters and shooters who maintain or modify rifles, it is a specialized shop component rather than a general-purpose accessory. Its role is focused and technical, so it fits best in a workbench setup where careful receiver work is being performed.

  • Intended for use with piloted tooling, which means it is best suited to users already set up for that type of work.
  • The description emphasizes precision-ground construction and hardness, but does not provide fitment details for specific rifles or platforms.
  • Parkerized finish is specified, but no additional finish-performance details are provided in the product data.
