standard vs. match chamber?

[codemancode]

Can someone explain the difference between a standard rifle chamber and a match chamber?

Thanks

Match chamber can be tighter, even to the point where you have to turn the necks on the brass. It can be longer to allow seating of bullet longer than standard COAL. Which match chamber specifically?

I'm not looking at any one caliber specifically. When browsing different barrel options i've noticed calibers like .300wm, .260 rem, 22-250 have a standard and match chamber option. Didn't know what the difference was.

the trick is to figure out exactly what you want and what you will use it for... before i called accurate ordnance, i sat down and figured out exactly what i wanted and what i want to do with my rifle... when it came time i called Mark, told him im going to run a xlr chassis with AI mags... i had a bartlein barrel and apa lil jimmy for a remington 700 that needs to be trued... i also told Mark that I will be shooting either 168 or 175 grain SMK or Berger.... the reason they needed to know how to cut the chamber.... thats where the "match" chamber from.... its just tailored for a specific set up... i literally just went through just about any questions you might have... feel free to PM me
