[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 439867, member: 12"] It is quite common for wildcatters to take a stock reamer print such as a standard PO Ackley version and "tweak" it in the body, shoulder etc. For example, I know personally of at least 4 significantly different versions of the 300 AI. No way in heck set of dies for one will work with the other three. You cannot assume that you have the original version or even the die mftr went of that original reamer print. Plus there are variances in die reamers the die mftrs order from the reamer makers for the same caliber. There is not one magic set of figures, there is a right and left limit and you can be anywere in between. Boss Hoss is right, If you want to wildcat, have the reamer prints and reamers. Otherwise it is a total pain in the butt sometimes. BH [/QUOTE]
