[QUOTE="hank shaper, post: 173123, member: 7199"] Thanks for all the help and explanations. I believe that this reamer was origanally for 155 match bullets. That would fit the problem that has been sited. The velocities that I have gotten, 3600 fps with 92.0 grs of AA8700 and 140 sgk, 28" bbl, make me think that it has some freebore or at least a long throat. I will get my smith to cut me a false chamber, split it and measure it. What premium bullets, that would be acceptible for hunting, would you recommend? Sierra bullets have shot very well for me over the years and work great on our Texas deer and hogs. Thanks again, Hank [/QUOTE]
