6.5x284 Question

[pburton]

Im having a 6,5x284 built and am at the point to choose which reamer that the Smith will use. The current options are both Match reamers. Both have a .2970 neck. One has 0.1990 free bore and the other has 0.187 free bore. I want to shoot 140 gr Berger Elite hunters or VLD's. This is a hunting rifle. Which free bore would you go with? The rifle is being built on a long action. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

I would use the long throat.

That is what I was thinking. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something. Thanks!
