Default 17 FB reamer needed

Looking for a reamer for a 17 fireball project with a Shilen barrel.

Any of the Canadian members here have one?

Something you might also use, a mach IV reamer to cut your 17 FB

chamber.

Almost exactly the same, if anything a smidge tighter but the one I cut with

my mach IV reamer worked fine with a standard FB die set. Kenny

I am not sure about that either. I will have to research. We can usually buy tools and reloading equipment with no issue.

The question about shipping to Canada came up a short time back. PT&G was shipping with no problems BUT JGS Precision Tool Mfg had problems so they wouldn't ship out of the U.S. till they got it sorted out.

Found a gunsmith with a reamer with only one chamber cut so far on it.

Now to figure out who's barrel to buy. Was going to go with Shilen but not sure.
