[QUOTE="MNbogboy, post: 2086923, member: 18849"] There are a number of "throat polishing" threads on various forums. This might give you the clearance you need as well as finish of any carbon you may have left. For instance (never tried this myself) but sounds like it may work. Drill & tap the primer pocket of a sized case. Make up a long rod to use as a handle. Seat a bullet to desired depth and add some style of abrasive compound (JB bore paste, iosso paste, flitz etc) to the bullet only. Spin by hand or slowly with a drill. Clean & check fit often with a clean dummy case. Remember a little goes a long way. You probably only need .0001 or .0002 This may work for the carbon with the JB paste. I use JB on a tight patch or on a wrapped brush for periodic throat maintenance and it removes all throat carbon down to bare metal. Sometimes if you haven't done it for a while it can take 100 strokes or more. [/QUOTE]
