G'day guys..

I've tried to contact PT&G via e-mail a a few times over the last couple of weeks but they don't seem to be responding to my requests so i thouight i would ask a few questions here before i give them a call..

As the title says i'm looking at ordering a 223 remington reamer. Can someone here tell me the neck dia for a no turn (0.0015" clearence) neck using Lapua brass?
I also plan to only shoot up to 55-60 Gn bullets and so what free bore would be best to allow seating out to the lands and still keep to standard OAL?

Thanks

Cheers

.223 reamer

I ordered a .223 reamer from PT&G requesting a no-turn neck and freebore for 52-77 gr bullets (to use with a 1:9 twist) and the recommendation was a .223 Rem Match reamer with a .252" neck and 0.040" freebore. That would be a 0.014" neck thickness with no clearance. I don't think I have any loaded .223 with a neck diameter over .249". Does that help? nhk
