Gunsmithing Bergara B14R action specs

I don’t believe the “3” - that corresponds to ~8.5 threads per inch, which is about half of a typical rifle, and extremely deep thread cuts. You sure that wasn’t M27x1.3, which is close to 1&1/16”-20?
I’ve had the barrel off before and they are EXTREMELY course threads. Never seen a barrel thread cut like that before. Would be curious as to why they chose to go that rout.
