What 6.5 reamer specs to use?

I want to get a 6.5 cm finish reamer made. I was considering 6.5x47L. But I want something that if I don’t have time to reload, I want to be able to go to the store and buy off the shelf ammo that’s half way accurate. 6.5 cm seems like the best option. The problem is, I had a Kreiger made that was extremely accurate, but the Sami spec freebore was so big, the barrel was shot out way to fast. I want something that’s a no neck turn, because I want store ammo to work but with a much shorter freebore. Any advise is welcome.
 
If I wanted to use off the shelf ammo, I wouldn't want a shorter than SAAMI freebore. Even if hand loading, there are a few hunting bullets that could use a longer than SAAMI freebore.
