. 303 epps

Check with Elwood Epps. I imagine that Elwood took his reamers to Orilla when he moved from Clinton. Mind you they would 50+ years old.
 
Ok just talked to Ellwood Epps and they said they can do it.
Wow when I called them 2 years ago they said they didn't have a reamer for the Epps improved. I guess they must have got enough requests and picked some up. Thanks again guys I wouldn't have tried them again
 
I would not chamber a No.4 for the Epps if it was mine. There is simply not enough benefit. Pressures are still limited and cases will still separate if loaded heavy. Velocity increase would be minor.

The reamer for the .303 Epps Improved cartridge is a custom reamer ordered from Manson. We had a reamer in the past that failed and required replacement, however it did take Manson some time to tool up and produce that reamer. We do now have the .303 Epps reamer in stock and can certainly take on your project at your convenience.
