What is the best reamer dimensions for a benchrest 6.5 x47 , no turn , thin to win ,, freebore? Seems like this caliber is an agging easy button , shooting dasher now but new build this winter has me thinking this would be better.
 
Thin to win means you have enough neck clearance. It doent mean you need thin necks necessarily. I have some great no turns as well as turn necks. So pick what ever neck you want just make sure you have at least .003" of neck clearance and a little more wont hurt. Freebore will depend on the bullet you want to shoot. I have from .130-.180. Theres no one size on this like we get away with in the 6mm. What bullet do you want to run?

After reviewing the print I went with the standard CIP (Euro SAMMI) reamer from JGS.
I really like this cartridge, so far it shoots like my BR only on steroids. (140 gr Berger Hybrids)
