PRS Talk MPA 6.5 CM reamer

[domdoc]

Does anybody know which reamer Masterpiece Arms uses for their Production Class rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor? I'm interested in the freebore. I have the PT&G 0.199" freebore reamer, and I'm curious if that's the one they use.

Did you call and ask?

I emailed MPA a few weeks ago asking specifically about the reamer used to chamber the barrels that are stamped for use with hornady bullets and they said that they use a .170” freebore reamer. Hope that helps.

They said their reamer was 175. This MPA barrel is not stamped for Hornady bullets, to my knowledge. So that's the shortest reamer I know of, then there's PT&G's, which is 200 (PT&G probably makes several different FB reamers in 6.5 CM). A friend got an MPA, and I was checking to see about any reamer differences, before telling him anything about loading for his rifle. The MPA reamer makes sense, since it's designed for PRS, and they want everything to be mag-length.
