    My load will be factory lapua brass, 139 scenars (for now) loaded to standard saami oal, but I want the possibility to run the 140 amax and 142 smks as well, and maybe even the 123 smk since I have 700-800 of them. Loaded round neck diameter is around .294 with the scenars.

    Will the standard saami reamer be good enough (.040 free bore, .298 neck), or should I go with a slightly tighter neck (.296-.297) and longer free bore (like .088 on the ptg 260 tactical match).

    This gun will mainly be used for 600 & 1000 yd long range competitions, with the possibility of shooting across the course matches as well.

    Thanks in advance.
