Throating for two different bullets is a balancing act. My reamer cuts .141 and it is about .020 short for the old 215's. On the other hand, at .141, I can shoot the 155.5 with .110 in the neck and a .020 jump. As the throat wears, I'll have to start using longer bullets for everything. The 185 LRBT actually is easier to keep in the case than the 185 hybrid.
A .166 freebore would give the shooter ~.180 in the neck with 185's and be right at the neck/shoulder junction with the old 215's. I think that is why Kiff has the F/TR reamer set up that way.
