[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 870029, member: 5219"] I had Dave Kiff at Pacific Tool and Gauge make my 300 Rum reamer. I trust his judgement as he has made my friend and I sixteen reamers, this one being number seventeen. Many of our reamers were specifically made to our specifications. After talking to Dave he said he had a reamer design that would work without any need to send in a dummy round or changing anything. It is a no turn neck with a 1 degree throat angle. Many of PT&G reamers use a 1 degree 30 min throat angle. I was surprised to hear that the 300 Rum doesn't use it but instead it uses 1 degree. He said through feedback from other shooters they discovered that this throat angle works better than the usual 1 degree 30 min. The rifle I use has a Wyatt's mag box and is setup as a repeater. OAL is just under 3.770". I never bothered to figure out the jump to the lands. Based on using the hybrids in other rifles I was pretty certain that the 230 gr would respond as other hybrids have done with a variety of seating depths and it didn't disappoint. [/QUOTE]
