Tested a print of a muzzle device after calibrating some PLA Pro. The print came out looking great. However, the 1/2x28 threads in the ID are very loose, so much that with minimal force, you can pull straight past them.
So, I’ve seen a few different ways to fix this, but I wanted to see what the community agrees to as the “best” practice to adhere to.
Do I adjust for shrinkage, add in additional tolerance in the modeled threads, or do something else entirely?

Print the above tolerance test, follow the calibration help page for that print, after that test+adjust for shrinkage, which should be consistent throughout the print, and will be adjusted by a flat % across the entire stl
From the califlower test, I had a -0.1% skew. Fixed that and adjusted for shrinkage. Just printed another flashider, and it’s much better now. Tight initially, but once worked back and forth, it threads on well. I imagine a tight fit is better than a loose fit.
