I afraid that I'm at a disadvantage. After 5 pages of Google, the overwhelming consensuses is that your 444tat has to do with Tattoos. Remind me what I know about the 444tat, who, what, where, when..t

Thread Alignment Tool is a device that allows you to accurately register a threading die on the end of a barrel so that the threads aren't skewed relative to the bore. It consists of a section of threaded rod the same as the die threads that is then turned down for a short distance on one end to the minimum dimension of the bore. It is slid snugly into the bore until the threaded part of the rod butts up against the end of the barrel. Then the die is screwed along the rod until it meets the end of the barrel. Once you start the threading action, it guides the die until enough of the barrel has been threaded that the die departs from the guidance of the T.A.T. and proceeds on its own. Admittedly, I assumed a .452 flute yields a .444 land. Midway sells them for a few of the common calibers.
