300 Norma Magnum Improved reamer and die release

[Cutarm]

Bullet Central should have dies available in about a week.

Micron Precision Series dies?

 

[Alex Wheeler]

Yep, you may need to call to order one.

Does the Berger 215 Hybrid Target work with the .275" free bore?

If it doesn't I'll buy your 215's off of you

I think the .275 freebore is more set up for the 230 Hybrid.

Question please: is the idea of a .300 Norma Mag Improved in only a 22" barrel nonsensical? Do I need 24-28" for the improved version (with more powder/case capacity) to make sense? I have a Husky HVA in .30-06 that I'm having rebarreled and opened up to feed .300 Norma Mag and I'm wondering if I should just go the improved route while I'm at it, but my barrel is only 22" long. TIA

You'll want to get a proper Lapua sized action for a 300 NM with
1 1/8" action threads and a .750 bolt.
I'm actually building one with a 20" barrel

This sounds interesting.

Alex;

Anything you would do different on this reamer if it were a dedicated ELR rifle (plan is to shoot 245 Bergers / maybe test the 250 A-tips). Maybe a little more free-bore? I shoot out to 2900 yards in light rifle ELR.

1 in 8 twist?

I have no problem tuning necks / tighter neck? .336?

What is the difference in velocity between the .300 Norma and the Norma Improved?

What is the difference in velocity between the .300 Norma and the Norma Improved?

it will depend on how much you push it, you can get 1-4 more grains of powder in the case with the shoulder pushed out.
