260Ackley 40 degree

Will be ordering a chamber reamer for 260 Ackley 40 degree (no neck turn)
I'll be using LAPUA factory 260 brass.
Q. anyone have a print for the above or suggest a chamber dimension
I'm considering .297"
 
If you call PT&G, ask them to send you a copy of reamer print #35615. That's the print I settled on after talking to Dave Kiff about a year and half ago. It's a .295" neck, which is skim turn or very tight no-turn, but you could easily have Dave change that to .297" for you. It's designed for Lapua .260 Remington brass, which is what I use.

It's shot very well for me so far.
 
.297 will work good with Lapua brass. Others are thinner. I had 2 .260 AI. I may try one again, but I'd do a regular .260.
 
UPDATE:
I ordered this new chamber reamer today for $200. ready for shipping in 2 weeks.
I got tired of waiting for a response from the other manufacturer...these guys were very prompt to reply.
Thanks to everyone who replied with opinions - made my final purchase decision easier!
