How bad did i screw up this chamber? - 05/18/16
---------------------------------------------
I just finished a .223ai and had an issue with reamer chatter. I have had this issue before but only when i prebored the chamber and not every time. In any case, its a sporter barrel and instead of setting it back and losing most of the shank i decided to just finish it out and see what happened. There were some light tooling marks but only on the very breech end of the chamber. I "polished" them out and now my fired brass is .004 larger ahead of the web than FL sized brass in the same area. The brass extracts easily so will this .004 oversized chamber be an issue with brass life? There doesnt appear to be a "bulge" or any other marks on the brass.
