    My Smith wanted to order a 6.5prc reamer, .150 freebore and slightly tighter nk than saami .299. My loaded hornady brass is .2915-.292. I've heard adg is thicker, but also wondered what newer or older hornady brass measured? If you've got some and don't mind measuring, I sure would appreciate it. Fwiw, he was thinking .295 or .297, not tight nk but just enough to not overwork nk in resizing. Thanks.
