Counter bore reamer?

[Caleb85]

Are they all there cracked up to be? Or should a guy just stick to a boring bar?

 

[DaveTooley]

I never used one but a boring bar is quick and simple and I make my CB's larger than most anyway. I'd bet time wise they are about the same.

 

[Riesel]

Spoiled me, I use them almost exclusively. I think there are real time savers.

I ground a hss bit and make a single plunge. Faster than a boring bar and you not stuck with a pre made dimension.

Got one and use it for all my Rem bbls. A great time saver.

 

[Caleb85]

For those guys that do use them, what brand are they? I was looking at Dave Manson's.

I've used PT&G for a long time, it sure is a time saver on the 700's....

I May have an extra PTG counter bore (NIB). Not sure what size it is. Send me a PM if you want more info.

PTG, one for the 6mm bores and another for the 7mm. Can change bushing for the to do the in-between sizes.....224, 250, 6.5 etc.

I have 2 for up to 6.5, need the 3rd for 7mm/30 if anyone has one.

I thought the #2 was for 257 to 29 caliber?

 

[tclaunch]

No, at least not with JGS

 

[Caleb85]

Hey what speed would use to cut with one of these tools? Same as useing a boring bar?

 

[tclaunch]

Very slow, like a parting tool.
