keith,
How do your freebore-free .257 Wby's shoot?
I can also answer that. They perform better than a chamber with std. dimensions.
I have 2 rifles done with that reamer. The first one is a trued single shot Savage with shouldered 12twist/29" Hart and 4" long brake. Load testing with RL22 and 3 different 100gr Sierras produced mid .2"s at 3982 and 4010. Another 1/2gr powder and groups opened way up, I found out later that the brake had loosened. The Sierra 1625 explodes a rockchuck.
The #2 gun is a Savage repeater with 10twist 26" Douglas heavy sporter, barrel nut. I've only fooled with it a little and so far seems to prefer 100BalTips. This gun handles much easier.
