    7mm SAUM Reamer

    G'Day all

    I'm looking to hire a 7mmSAUM reamer with a tight neck and long throated for 180 Gr Bergers
    does anyone know where I can hire / loan one from?

    Cheers

    I have Tracey Shorts one right here in front of me. I'm actually about to send it back to him. It's a pretty tight neck although its set up to use the 162's. I will measure the OAL tonight when I get home.

    Yes he has one but the neck is suited to the 300SAUM necked down from memory

    Yeah I used this one before on my hunting rifle it has a .312 neck, I like it I spoke with Jason this morning and I am next on the list to use this one next
    I have just ordered a new one to suit the bergers but will be a about a month out.

    Cheers

    Mine is a match reamer, and has a .319 neck. Setup for 300SAUM Norma brass necked down. Needs a very light neck turn.

    I haven't tried a 180gr in a case to see how it measures up, but with a 162gr amax it measures 2.995 OAL to the lands. My reamer specs show a throat of 2.250" and leade of .188 if that is any help?
    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    Thanks for the info, a .319 neck would be too loose for my liking the nosller brass with a 180 Berger in it measures .3142 with a micrometer I normally keep my clearance to 3 thou

    actually there's nothing wrong with the normal offerings, I have always been happy with Rem brass but in this case, I wanted to try something different for my F-Class rig.
    (it was also a case of the price changing after delivery) opps
