Does changing barrels on a switch barrel cause thread wear? I would like to hear if anyone has tested this theory with documented results.

First, There is no way for there not to be "some wear" that comes from repeated screwing off and on of barrels. If you do the proper lubing and are not cross-threading or bumping and deforming the threads, male or female, then the wear would be almost undetectable, except under lab conditions.Does changing barrels on a switch barrel cause thread wear?

I won't use anti seize on barreled actions. I believe in grease. Davey Dohrrrmannn's concoction (Tru-Kote) is what I use.
