.308 Reamer selection for 168-185g bullets

What reamer would you use for mag-length .308 shooting 168-185g bullets?

It's just a general purpose rifle. Not trying to be 1/8th minute or an FTR gun
 
A Palma 95 works well for mag length Sierra 168 and 175 match kings. Never tried 185's so I can't say how it would work with those. I'd add .002" over the original to the .200" line though, the original .470" is too tight for most size dies. .472-.473" seems to work well with commonly available sizing dies.
