[QUOTE="freddiej, post: 1730343, member: 26227"] Randy, deepening the chamber on the Ruger is exactly what I intend to do. The Manson reamer is on order. All I am going to do is take a 0.002" cut to use just the PPU brass. Also to smooth out the shoulder, the brass has a really rough shoulder like the reamer broke while reaming the chamber. He can run all the other brands in his Savage. He loves the Ruger and it's his primary gun. That chamber gets the cut to take the PPU brass. BTW, I just got off the bench with 4 pieces of PPU brass sized on my machine from Jay's brass. They fit all of the other 243 win's in the coyote hunter's guild. Two Winchsters, five Remingtons, a Savage, three Tikka T-3's, and four custom builds out of Lee's shop. Used a small socket to compare the PPU brass resized to other brass resized. a distinct 0.002" to 0.004" longer than the other brass measured. measured the fired but not resized brass and found the shoulder comes out under SAAMI minimum or very close to it. factory ammo is normally 0.002" below SAAMI minimum, fired PPU brass comes out 0.001" over factory brass.
