[QUOTE="tobnpr, post: 2528723, member: 68758"] Never heard of it... don't see how this is possible, sure would like to see this animal. Haven't tried carbide because I think they're better suited to the speeds/feeds of a more rigid CNC setup. All new reamers I get are TiN coated. Manson charges $40 to resharpen a reamer, so I do see that as cost effective; that said I usually "retire" a finisher when I start to see the sharpness/definition of the leade deteriorate and use it as a "rougher" for the majority of the chamber then finish with a newer/sharper reamer to get the best leade. The leade section of the reamer is critical, and it's also the section of the reamer exposed to the most wear. Drilling/preboring obviously helps the wear/tear as well. [/QUOTE]
