I know it kinda sucks waiting on a reamer but I'm at the point where I want it done right!
I like to spec .005-.006 clearance above the web on everything to avoid clickers.
Have one you want to sell?

Time for an update
I wasn't really happy with the SDs I was getting with the short barrel, and I drew a good elk tag in open country so I put a 25" Benchmark #5 fluted barrel on her.
I'm getting ridiculous accuracy and an ES under 10 now with a mild 81 grains H1000 sending 245 eols 2850.
I've taken it out to 1900 yards so far and there's virtually zero vertical dispersion.
After all that I ended up somehow shooting this bull at 100 yards in wide *** open country...

Congratulations on the bull!
That same load puts down single digits and silly accuracy in my 300 NMI also! It really surprised me when I tried it but what works... works

Yeah when you shoot a 10 shot string over a Garmin and your SD is 2 its tough to argue the awesomeness of the NMI

Straight up tipped that guy over in two steps, total carnage.
I'd like to see what they do way out there
