Will it work? Maybe. Is taper the same I haven't checked? Don't be a cheap *** buy the correct reamer
You just broke the rule

Use a 300 rum then finish it off with the 338 rum...or just get the correct reamer.

Shoulder will be .001 larger. Might eventually be tough on brass. I don't know for sure.
I must be missing something. Explain that differently please. By my math, the base to shoulder is .091" longer.
Why not run the 338 rum reamer in .091" further and avoid using 2 reamers?

I "think" if you did that then your case taper would be off? Hmmmm I'm not sure tho.
On that note, what if you use a 338 rum fl die to resize?
You'll just get me building more rifles and have my wife mad at me

You wouldn't be able to size the case completely.
