[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 536832, member: 2736"] Sorry: I would have to disagree with that because the SAMMI spec gives a dimension +/- for the manufactures to build there ammo to so it will fit in any chamber. There is little or no tolerance for the reamer maker. The Reamers are a different story. The reamer makers have a spect that they have to build to in order to call it a standard reamer.And unless you ask for something different from the reamer manufacture you will get a SAMMI Dimension reamer that is within .001 to .003 of there Specs. The ammo makers can deviate much more. Winchester is one of the ammo makers that load all of there ammo much smaller to fit in any chamber. The point is that if you want a standard "SAMMI" reamer it will be as close to the SAMMI spec as possible or within the reamer makers quality standards. Ammo and dies are like you said they are not always right or even close to the SAMMI standards. My explanation was about the reamers, Not the ammo or the die tolerances. I have ordered many reamers and have ask about subtle changes and they said that will be a custom reamer because it is not SAMMI spec. In all fairness to your response though, I have never ask for a Min or Max SAMMI spec reamer Because I would be afraid of what the reamer makers response would be. At best, if you don't mind paying more for a reamer you can ask for anything. but it requires re-programing their equipment, thus the extra cost. I am Not being argumentative just trying to clarify the difference between a standard reamer and a custom reamer. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
