[QUOTE="Rhett Crider, post: 2435426, member: 105034"] When I built my PRC, it was chambered w/ 0.155 free bore. I reload. I measured OAL and CBTO for several projectiles after the build to set up my reloading. Factory Hornady ammo, both 143X and 145M would jam. Just barely, but it would. Your smith can pull the barrel, run a throat reamer, and reinstall in about 30 minutes. Most have free bore gauges they can check your factory ammo with to see how much more you need. I would guess at least 0.050 but could be more. Possibly someone you know has a comparator and bullets for the 6CM to measure and help out. [/QUOTE]
