[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1089110, member: 24284"] I'll 'eat' the cost of a tool if I know I'll use it again, hopefully multiple times. Any 'special' is on the customer. Many expect the gunsmith to provide that 'special' tool at no extra cost. Ha! Ha! 50% don't have a clue. I already own 71 different reamers, SAAMI spec and popular 'specials' that I've used more than a couple of times. Multiply that 71 x $170 (+ or - those 'specials' always cost more!) for a dollar amount. That doesn't include gauges and throating reamers. Taken the time to explain it to a customer and chances are he won't be willing to 'foot the bill' for that special but will use what's available. [/QUOTE]
