Re: Reamer rentals
I'd buy a new one from PTG, cut your chamber, and sell it. You'll likely end up with less out of pocket and be using a brand new reamer to cut your chamber.

Never tried to sell a used reamer. I know Elk Ridge only charges $36, and they say PTG keeps them sharp.

Had smooth transaction with 4D Chamber Rentals on my latest build. Gunsmith said the reamer was sharp. It's around $30 for the rental with a $100 deposit.

Re: Reamer rentals
i have used elk ridge rentals a few times. And i did speak witht the lady from PTG, they do get touched up avery so many uses. I had a few chambers that i knew i was prob only going to do once. Payment and shipping was super easy. Just be sure to verify pilot size, they dident have the one i needed and they had PTG send it to me and return it to them.

Re: Reamer rentals
I have used Elk Ridge and 4D both are good company's.Buying a reamer plus gauges is allot of coin for one chamber plus most reamers cut better after they have been used a few times why I can't say.
