[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 1356266, member: 13833"] Lots of good info passed along here. I have had very good luck with JGS as far as quality and service. I won't even buy a go gauge from PTG anymore!! On my designs, I have chosen to run a little more clearance on the throat. I usually run .0008 instead of the normal .0005". I have found es to be more consistent as pressures are easier to control. You usually get a little more velocity as well. I would also recommend that you get a reamer cut with oil grooves for better lubing during cutting. I like AT LEAST .004" clearance on your loaded round, and .005", or even .006" won't hurt. I would have it cut .004" for a no turn and then you can turn it a little if need be. Hope this helps.....Rich [/QUOTE]
