    Freebore on prefit

    Looking at getting a prefit in 28 Nosler, and they list the reamer as being for the 195gr Berger - .300FB. Is this too much freebore as I won't be shooting the 195gr Berger? I'm guessing the monos would jump that far.

I'm curious to hear from more experienced Weatherby loaders if seating depth is a significant factor in the...

    Freebore for 162 ELD-X in 284 Winchester

    I’m getting ready to order a reamer for a 284 Winchester build and was wondering if anyone can tell me the freebore in their chamber that is being used with the 162 ELD-X? I’m wanting to seat the bullet so the shank is above the neck/shoulder junction. The rifle will be built with a Remington...
