.22-250 REM reamer

[Jurgens]

I am looking to rebarrel my .22-250rem with a 1-8 twist broughton/bartlein barrel for 75gr Berger VLD bullets. What would be a good setup with regard to reamer specs.? I was thinking 95 thou freebore, .250 neck and 1°-30min lead angle?

Will this work for the 75gr Bergers or need it be changed?

Thank you

Sounds Ok, in particular the 1 deg 30' leade, but the neck diameter might paint you in a corner... do you intend to neck turn your brass?

I'm running a .252 neck and .012 to .0125 neck thickness. it's working out well. you definitely have to turn if you're shooting lapua brass

Yes I do intend to neck turn, I believe it has merit even only removing the high spots.

Thank you for the help
