[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1426548, member: 2736"] I have seen this before and although rare, it does happen. (I have repaired several rifles that the wrong reamer was used) especially with chambers that are almost alike. Some don't know the difference and some smiths apparently don't bother to double check the reamer ID. What ever the cause, It is sad and there is no excuse. I have also repaired rough chambers that used the right reamers, but failed to measure the bore for the correct reamer pilot bushing (The bushing "Must" fit the bore to get the best results from a reamer). Normally these kind of things happen when a smith is to busy and/or not organized. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
