    As far as I understand it (Jaco will know the answer here) The freebore is cut by the reamer, so the reamer would have to be modified in order to shorten the freebore.

    Mickey Duck is right, extra freebore probably wont matter. All of my other calibres I have loaded for (7x57, 8x57, 6.5x55) have shot perfectly well with a lot of freebore. I think I was just imagining that with a custom chamber I would be loading close to the lands, but in practice I won't notice the difference.
