Doug:
When I was working on the 75mm barrels I didn't have enough good 76mm info to do an evaluation. I've since gotten it, but I haven't been able to get back to evaluating the market.
Here are the dimensions:
Breech end cylindrical section: 6.450 dia (this protrudes about 3 inches out of the gun shield
Tapered region length from cylindical section to back of muzzle brake lock nut: 94.26 approx (94.50 is probably closer once nut is run forward to lock brake)
Front end of tapered region immediately behind lock nut: 4.864 dia
