[QUOTE="kcebcj, post: 960015, member: 10391"] J E I want to run something by you and anyone else that cares to comment. The SAAMI chamber dept for a 300 WM is 2.9545. The bullet I want to use is the 215gr Berger and my Mark V magazine will let the cartridge with a COAL of 3.6 work. This load with a COAL of 3.6 measures 2.835 at the ogive. My question is could I have my smith use a SAAMI spaced reamer but instead of running it in to the 2.9545 have him stop short at 2.845 leaving me with .010 jump to start load development with? Would that .100 short be a bad deal or create any danger? Just been knocking this around in my head and would like the hear some opinions. Have not ran this by my smith yet. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
