[QUOTE="APDDSN0864, post: 2306462, member: 58226"] Well, I guess I should go buy a lottery ticket because I (not knowing any better) got my 6.5x280AI reamer and gauges from PT&G and they are perfect. I've had two barrels chambered with that reamer and both 'smiths were pleased with the results and both rifles are great shooters. Both of these 'smiths have been around for years and have built quite a few high end competition rifles and both are serious competitors themselves. YMMV. As to the dies, I just bought a set of .280Ackley Redding S bushing dies and several bushings to work with different neck thicknesses. While waiting for my dies, I used a set of 6.5 Creedmoor dies to neck size .270 brass to fireform them. Ed [/QUOTE]
