[mitchellchandler_au]

Hi all,
I was wondering what freebore you would reccomend i use for my 6.5x47 build, I will be using projectiles around 123-130gn. and the rifle has a AICS magazine.

Thanks,

I would just use the standard lapua chamber reamer I can't remember what the free bore is but will post it when I get home this evening

factory lapua ammo has a different throught for 123 and 140. had to send the reamer back to pt&g .

Per Dave Kiff, my reamer is .123 FB for the 123-130 gr., works great for me

.163 is what my reamer print said and I group around .30 average out of a 26in 1/8 twist pac nor barrel with 130 berger vlds

You might check with Dave Manson at Manson reamers as well. We've been having great results with one of his.
