[QUOTE="oldfamily, post: 90541, member: 4835"] Question is about the 257 stw that I am having built. MY smith has had one reamer break and the other twist trying to ream out the chamber. Both reamers were brand new one broke in half, and the other twisted. My question is could the barrel be too hard to ream. I called the barrel company and they are having the barrel returned to see if they can chamber it. I am in quality controll for a living and this crap has got me thinking of the quality of work that goes into this barrel. I know that this is the last barrel that I will purchase from this company. I have not put the name of the company because I am waiting to see if they make things right. I do know the reamer company asked what barrel that was being reamed and when they heard they acted like they had this problem before. I just wish to get this thing finished so I cam start putting some round down range. Oldfamily [/QUOTE]
