6x284 Reamer info

I am considering building a 6x284 build but looking for info on what reamer to order. My plan is to set this up for the 105/115 gr bullets. What neck dia. and freebore do I want to order?

Any one have a reamer print they could send me for general info.

Thanks
George
 
I am in the same boat. Hopefully someone has one that is a good fit for the Redding dies and Lapua brass as far as the base diameter.
 
Here is some food for thought.. Lapua 6.5 x 284 brass has a neck wall thickness of .015.. I am sure you are going to want to turn it down some. So if you turn it down to say 0.012 (which will COMPLETELY clean up the necks) You will want a neck of .271 (0.004 clearance) and a freebore of at least .150 for the 115's and Hybrids>>> a .115 for other 105 class bullets..

I should add that if you need to talk to someone about EXACTLY what YOU want, call Dave Kiff at Pacific Tool and Guage. He is the reamer specialist..
