Reamers

[trevort]

So I've spoken to Luke from Eastec and he will take on my Stiller once I get the coin together to get Seddo to order the barrel.

But he doesnt have a 20Br or 20 dasher reamer.


Anyone have one lying around

[chris.tyne]

Order one now Trev,do your chamber and I will give you $130 for it when your finished

[trevort]

ok, do you have a preference

[WARDY91]

I almost ordered one last week.

[chris.tyne]

Trev do you mean as in manufacturer or measurments.

[trevort]

I meant which one, 20br or 20 dasher?

I've always wanted a 20 dasher firing 55gn bergers but leaning to wards a 20 BR.

Now if you want to discuss technical stuff like free bore etc well go for your life

I will just be saying "20 br reamer please, I'll be seating a 40vm half way in the neck"

Technical arent I

IIRC Keith Hills has a 20 BR reamer.

Might be worthwhile slinging him an email?

[trevort]

I wonder if he would be keen on lending it to another smith?

It is not unknown.

Be best to email him and find out.

If you are ordering a 20br reamer with those specs Trevort, I may be interested in hiring it at some point in the future. A 20tac or 20/222 has been on my mind for a while, but in reality a 20br switch barrel on my single shot Pierce target rifle would be more useful, cheaper and easier.

Have you decided what twist barrel you will order?

[trevort]

Jason, Luke quoted $160 for a reamer, if I on sold to Chris for $130 it cost me $30. I reckon you offer him a hungee for it and we are looking at $30 per use.

Sounds like value

I just read the 6br site rundown on 20cals and a really awesome thread on BCs of 20 cal bullets on Saubier and a 20 br with 40 vmax is the go

I am still going for a no 6 Lilja in 9 twist as I will get ACP to make me some pills in the 42 to 45 gn range because I can. I dont think the 9 twist will compromise the the vmax

[JasonF]

Sounds like value indeed. Count me in.

The Lilja 9 twist sounds like the go.

[Seddo]

Have a chat to Luke, if he is going to get 2-3 jobs he will mist likely buy the reamer.

[trevort]

that requires two interstaters to get their guns to him

Jason and Chris, did you want Eastec to do your next build?

If not tell me any specific reamer specs you desire and I'll order it

[JasonF]

I would prefer to use my own smith.

I like ths sounds of letting the reamer maker set it up to work with a 40 vmax. Haven't done any research so can't comment on technical specs.
