Im looking at ordering a reamer to buid a .300 Rum and was hoping thats someone could help me out with this.
I have spoken to PTG and there recommendation is .168 free bore now if anyone has built or has a rifle with similar freebore can they advise me what the loaded length to the lands will be with the 208 Amax.

.300 Rum
.168 freebore
208 Amax
COL ?

Re: Need help with .300 Rum reamer.

Im aware that the best thing to do would be to send a few dummy loaded rounds to PTG and have him make a reamer to fit my application but being in Australia this will be rather difficult.
Another way is if anyone has a .300 WM with (X) amount of freebore an knows how far out the 208 Amax is loaded to the lands knowing the free bore length and OAL i can extrapolate a fairly accurate AOL from this info.
