It’s good to see the chambering process in action. Some TH-camrs think it might be boring for their viewers to watch but not for this firearms enthusiast. Thanks for showing us how you went about it . Cheers 🍻
Hobby machinist here, target shooter looking to chamber .7mm .284Shehane in Bartlein barrels. Thank you. Yes PTG! New sub’d viewer, your video looks great. I always use 1/10,000 or 5 tenths to adjust runout.

I have collected a few 22lr barrels that I intend to ream for 22 WMR. Learned a lot here. Thanks You ...The picture is great. But I don't think I would notice unless I was watching on a very large TV.
You are the best spoken and best at exposing this without a bunch of Jibber jabber waste of words. Thanks a lot for posting. I’m trying to teach myself with books and once in awhile youtube
Video looks great. Love all your videos and excited to see more lathe work. Just wanted to mention that each small line on the indicator is one ten thousandths (0.0001") so at 4:30 in the video the indicator was reading half of one thousandths (0.0005") not half of one ten thousandths (0.00005").
the pictures fine of the video! i see double in these glasses my eyes were operated on about 10 years ago things change! i had spare glasses the bi focal has little dull vision maybe eyes changed! i glade your back!
Your video looks great! I've watched a lot of your videos and just subscribed yesterday after watching your second MEC marksman press review. Im very new to handloading and I couldn't help but notice how little runout (if any) you were getting on your finished cartridges. I also have a new MEC press, I'm loading 30-06 useing forester micro adjust seating die, 165gr hornady sst and lapua brass (first fired). On some of the cartridges the needle barely moves but on others I'm getting up to .003 of runout. Is this normal? Or could it be something I'm going to create these little inconsistencies? Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated. I've learned alot from watching your videos. Keep them coming and thanks.
Getting a small amount of run out is normal. It can be caused by several things, even brass spring back after sizing. If all your getting is .003 I wouldn’t worry much at all.
Not sure if its not done processing but I don't think you uploaded it in 4k, or at least its not an option I can view it in. Not sure if you meant it this way or not.
Well, it was my impression that if shot in 4K then compressed by TH-cam it would still look better. I watched my video before this on and then this new video on the big screen and I can see a difference but not so much on a small screen.... oh well, I still love the new camera.!
TH-cam compresses it down but from what I can tell it retains more detail vs 1080 compressed. I could load in straight 4K without compression but it would take a month of sundays to load a video.
I'm looking to ream the barrel of a 1903/A3. Being as that it's chambered for .30-06, (.308) would I be safe using a reamer that measures .3125, or would that be considered too much headspace?
One half of one ten thousandth? Based on your use of that particular test indicator, you are actually out a half of a thousandth. At that particular location on the rod. That 10 on the dial refers to ten of the ten thousandths increments or ONE thousandth. The really terrible thing about that method is that it is not repeatable. Try this, dial it in then pull the rod and re insert it, you will get a different reading. But, by using a floating reamer holder, that's ballpark good! The downside of that reamer holder is that in addition to floating it is also pivoting off the pressure of the single driving lever. That makes it ream a tapered hole. As a general rule, when a reamer is making dry (unlubricated) chips, it is drilling. Good video quality.
I do agree with you, but for showing it on TH-cam I felt it was important to show the video. That all said, I think I'll mention it in the next video not to rotate the reamer in a non-directional rotation.!
I’d imagine even though it’s free float it still has pressure trying hold it in position when cutting “because it’s got forward pressure and friction” so if the barrel isn’t even it’s more likely to oblong the chamber. So your more likely to get atleast a tighter more even chamber
If you polish it to much or use to heavy of grit paper you could yes. But 600 grit with light pressure for just a few seconds won’t change the dimensions of the chamber.
@@vaughnprecision and I suppose leaving a thou undersized ND then polishing out to final dimension isn't possible because of the interior shape of the chamber, right?
Glad to see you’re back making videos man. Picture looks great. Had a quick question. I’m getting ready to do my first chambering on a Savage barrel. If I heard right your target was 0.126” off the face of the go gauge to the face of the bore. I assume that’s equal to the depth of pocket in the bolt face. Do you try to hit that bolt face depth exactly, or do you make it a little long for a crush fit on your brass? Like + 0.001-0.002”? Thanks
It’s for a 50 action express. I’m using a .223 bolt face. Pressures and everything will work. 223 is the closest bolt face to the cartridge rim dia. I’ll send ya some pics of it when it’s done. Waiting on my reamer to come from PTG in mid-March
No because the reamer has a pilot bushing that needs to follow the bore, if you drilled it you couldn’t keep the chamber straight in relation to the bore.

What did you measure to find how deep to plunge on your chamber reamer?
Looks super clear to me. Thanks for the super clear information on chambering too.
Very clear video, you can really pick up detail.
Video is looking great! Love seeing the lath work for certain, great to see the process demonstrated!
Very nicely done, precision takes time. Stay safe, and God bless

Your video is so clear and I guess your new camera is great! Keep videoing!
Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it!
When you first "dialed in" the barrel it seems like the barrel could be crooked if you're measuring one point on the rod.
The barrel is rotating.
Great video!
Your video and audio is great.

Great video....question I am going to finish a short chambered barrel fir 25-06. Going to rent a reamer should I use a live pilot or not.
I would yes. I’m a fan of them
You seem to be running 1/2 thou, not 1/2 a tenth. Unless I’m missing something.
Have you ever installed one of Eric's EC Barrel Tuners
No I haven’t but if I could talk him in to sending me one I’d like to test it out.!

Thanks John
Hate to ask a dumb question but do you drill the chamber out to a rough closest size before reaming?
Nope, just use the reamer start to finish
I'm looking to ream the barrel of a 1903/A3. Being as that it's chambered for .30-06, (.308) would I be safe using a reamer that measures .3125, or would that be considered too much headspace?
Hello Friend. Where can I buy this drill? If possible, send me the link to the site where I can buy it.

I cringe when you move the reamer counterclockwise... I never turn a reamer backwards.
I do agree with you, but for showing it on TH-cam I felt it was important to show the video. That all said, I think I'll mention it in the next video not to rotate the reamer in a non-directional rotation.!
Like running a good file backwards
Hi ya Curt, If you want more work to do I still need a muzzle break on my 308. The picture is better, sharper! Karl.
Call me later today
Why would you center the barrel to such a small degree and then have a free floating tailstock? It seems that is redundant. Belt and suspenders?
I’d imagine even though it’s free float it still has pressure trying hold it in position when cutting “because it’s got forward pressure and friction” so if the barrel isn’t even it’s more likely to oblong the chamber. So your more likely to get atleast a tighter more even chamber
Don't you run the risk of opening up the chamber by polishing after you reamed to size?
If you polish it to much or use to heavy of grit paper you could yes. But 600 grit with light pressure for just a few seconds won’t change the dimensions of the chamber.
@@vaughnprecision and I suppose leaving a thou undersized ND then polishing out to final dimension isn't possible because of the interior shape of the chamber, right?
@@TheMcgee80 there is no way to undersize the chamber unless you have a custom reamer made. But sanding out .001 is harder then you think

hi mate,depth micrometer inch or metric?
...smallest graduations on the indicator are .0001 ...

@@vaughnprecision many thanks
Wouldn't it make sense to pre-drill some of the material out so you don't have to work your reamer so much? Drill bits are way cheaper.
No because the reamer has a pilot bushing that needs to follow the bore, if you drilled it you couldn’t keep the chamber straight in relation to the bore.

You're in my boat when it comes to looks. It doesn't make things better if we can see your face more clearly.
You running out .0004 or four ten-thousandths. What you said would make it .000050 or 50 millionths to be one half of one ten thousandths
good to see you out in the shop
I may need some barrel work. If the dictator J Inslee would open this poor state up
4k 👍
AKA 50 millionths run-out in machinist speak. Don't breath on it wrong or it will change
No. That was half a thousands or five tenths.
@TJ Robison he said "one half of one ten thousandths" I must not have actually looked at the indicator and took his word for it
@Ryan Thede You are correct in just going off what he said. But he had a tenth indicator and it moved half a thousands.
The camera looks fantastic, but you might want to trim your nose hairs. 😜
Nice call 😂
i would not trust that chinese indicator
