Extraction problems 6/284... Finally found out what was the problem @#%&*&%#@ !!!!

I have a question. How is it possible to cut a chamber with a reamer and get a bulge deeper in the chamber or in this case near the shoulder? I can understand getting a bulge at the rear near base but not forward. With some kind of a boring bar I can understand but not with a reamer. I only ask this because I am confused as to how this can happen.

Thanks Chet

Lateral force on the reamer tail.
The far end 'wallows' the chamber.

Hand reamed chamber?
I have seen more than one that was oval.

Its rocks now

took rifle to rifle to the Prairie Dog fields of eastern Montana and none of the Prairie dogs liked the new chamber cut on my rifle.

But what he is saying is that now that youre using the correct brass for your chamber it works as intended.
