[QUOTE="TwoMore, post: 1690231, member: 95166"] I absolutely respect your knowledge! and love to read your thoughts ,but cleaning the throat from any burr’s before firing I just cant see the problem,I am a perfectly experienced precision machinist , when I messed up and rented a dull throater and could see the burr’s i was just unwilling to fire that down a 800 dollar proof barrel. It took very little effort to get it to where I felt the firing a bullet would not take those burrs down the bore. It all turned out good with the rifle as it is shoots well under .5. I did not lap the barrel just cleaned the throat. Now 99 percent of the chambers I use custom reamers but this was one of the first,where the customer provided the reamer and the ammo he wanted to use I had to throat deeper it was my mistake. There are going to be instances where some work will have to be done IMHO have a great weekend :) [/QUOTE]
