I hear those things are put on with copious amounts of torque...almost to the point that i'm not sure i'd trust myself to try it. i think i read somewhere recently that CMP will screw on a new barrel for you at a match if they have time (hah...sort of a pun)
Does it look like there's been material removed from the shoulder of the barrel? I would shoot criterion an email at the very least and see what kind of response you get. Who knows, maybe it's a defect in workmanship on their part?
So if i get the gall to get my barrel off, I'll let you know and we can test fit yours to mine. i think you're supposed to be somewhere between 8-15 degrees behind time in order to get the correct amount of torque to keep it tight while shooting.
