    What is astounding is looking at the number of people interested in these things. This information used to be magic. You had to go and talk to the old grizzled German gunsmith and depending of his mood that day you may get information, if you were lucky.
    Today with the shared wealth of information on the web the shooting sports are going to new levels and it’s fantastic.
    Terrific video.

    As a machinist and a back yard gunsmith we use to put rubber bands tight around the boring bar or reamer to help with chatter. Heavy weight oil for reaming also. On the mill and lathe to ream on size or under size holes Heavy oil slowest speed, in and out with hand speed on the feed rate. Get it in, get it out no dwell. The amount that is being taken out varies the finish also. Normal reaming stock amount .007 - .015. For chamber reamers going from standard to AI chambers heavy oil worked good for me. I was a machinist 29 years. Gunsmithing 23 years. Using a finish reamer gave me the best results. Hope this gave insight on reaming.

    You mentioned "those who do flushing during reaming" you should all be either flushing with coolant from the front of the barrel or at minimum use compressed air at around 25 - 40 PSI . any milling job can be ruined with swarf scoring your surface.

    That hour went by quickly. Pleasant informative viewing.
    Good to know as general knowledge..the terms and concepts..
    Having a barrel made soon and hopefully a matching body die.
    I'm wondering about providing cases and pills to help set the headspace and throat depth...as I like option to seat near the lans, and hope to avoid working my brass...or overworking..etc..
    Maybe I might hope for a tighter neck, shorter throat and similar Headspace to shoulder.
    Without driving gunsmith bezerk...ha

    Pacific tool and die company and they have great chamber reamers since back before WW2 and lots of other precision tools . I have ordered a lot of chamber reamers for them in different calibers and all were perfect to me. And they said if I had any kind of problem they would get professional help for me and if I needed gauges for my lathes or milling machine that would set me up with a technician that knows a lot about it and for the type of machine I'm useing . I have even got full barrel reamer that cut so precise and smooth I was totally scary with the results it was almost like the barrel was polished and was ready for rifleing and they sent me a lot of information on useing the tool for the best turn out. I used there reamer for full barrel ream and I have button rifle a muzzle loader rifle barrel with a one in 36 twist rate and I'm hitting targets with a .410 dia one inch across flat's 42 inch long barrel. Useing paper patch boolits and hitting a 12 inche steel at 400 yards using 100 GR. Weight by digital scale and not by volume. Because volume is not accurate. I took my no.11 percussion nipple out and change it with a 209 conversion nipple I purchased from Cabela's for 30 something dollars and it has a built in fireing pin and a rubber o ring seal and I have never had it to fail no matter how much rain came down. I had to trim bottom skirt off of the hammer but did it so you would never know it was even on there. Flip up Sharpe's back sight with peep and a Lyman aperture front sight with level bubble and adjustable left and right front sight for fine tuning and up or down front sight screw up or down. I think I have a one of a kind double set triggers Pennsylvania Lancaster long rifle and I use a fiber glass electric fence rod that's black and has brass tips for cleaning and pushing bullets down the barrel firmly. I found a cheap none breakable ram rod that fits perfectly in my barrel and piping .

    On the large case high cutting resistance thing, I have seen a couple people mention that high taper long cartridges like 300 hh are the worst when it comes to testing their gunsmithing skills. The entire reamer is taking a decent chipload versus a minimal tapered reamer cutting mostly shoulder and minimally on the body. Steady chambering and heavily tapered reamers seem to be a recipe for chatter and difficulty.

    Gavin, I recently ordered a .220 Russian chamber reamer and will be having an AR (specifically a PSA KS-47) built in that caliber. I think it's an interesting caliber and would love to see a video on it since there's not much available on it.

      @the1andonlySherlock ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@eloiseharbeson2483 Yes, it is 7.62x39 necked down to .22 cal. Its a popular starting case for a variety of other cartridges, such as 6.5 Grendel, 6mm ARC, 6 PPC, 22 PPC, and 20 PPC. The notable thing in contrast to those cartridges though is that it retains the same case taper as 7.62x39, whereas all those other ones are much straighter.

    At gun shows and in the collections of friends, I've see some beautiful bolt-actions chambered for the .300 Savage. Alas, the only way to get a "New" rifle like this is to have it made special. And not a whole lot of Smiths seem to be very familiar with this cartridge or the guns that use it. So, I'd like to buy a reamer for the .300 Savage just to be able to loan it out to a gunsmith when I've decided on exactly how I want my rifle made.
