This post is for anyone who chambers or is thinking about chambering rifle barrels and doesn't know about The Lambeth Reamer Micrometer.
The last 5ths. of any chambering job can be a nightmare. If you go to far, then you have to move the shoulder back, recut your cone and try to feel for that magic number your attempting to hit. Some people will just say, "close enough" but you don't have to settle for that anymore.
For the price of a carbide reamer you can have one of the most valuable tools on the market for chambering. It comes with six (6) different length bodies, one (1) micrometer dial and one (1) locking ring. The micrometer dial is 40 threads per inch, just like a manual micrometer with laser etched hash marks dividing the dial into 25ths. or 1ths. per mark.
When you get down to the last 5ths. using whatever measuring technique you are comfortable with, you just dial in what you need and finish the reaming in one pass.
If you want to do a couple of chambers or 100 the same way, you just leave the reamer set up and ream until it stops against the locking collar. It's totally repeatable time after time.
Since it comes with six different length bodies, you can set up six different popular reamers and just purchase extra micrometer rings.
Finally someone has invented not just another widget but a better mousetrap.
