6.5x47 lapua reamer neck dimensions

Going to get a new 6.5x47 reamer from Kiff, he suggested a .295nk for no-turn

I had one a couple of years ago with a .293nk and it shot well.

What are most of you guys running now???

I was thinking .294nk just to split the difference, of course this is for a no-turn neck.

Don't want to go too tight and run in to vertical, but at the same time I don't want to work the brass more than needed.
 
I shoot a .290 nk. (turning involved of course) This gives me 100% clean up while still having plenty of brass. So far, I haven't split a neck yet. ::)
I hope this helps,
Lloyd
 
Loaded round diameter of Lapua 6.5X47 brass is right at .2895-.290. My chamber is .292 in my rifle. I decided on .292 at last minute over the .293. and it works well. A .293 may well suit your needs again.
