Canadian Chamber Reamer Maker?

[FrankCJ7]

As my title says,

Are there any Canadian chamber reamer makers out there? I'm looking at making wildcat cartridges and I'd rather have my stuff kept on our side of the border.

None I am aware of. There will be a few 'smiths' making their own but I doubt being done on a commercial basis.

I'd love to know as well, I'm interested in opening up my 308 win to a 7.62x51mm if I can, just to loosen the chamber slightly

What? Just shoot it. You and the rifle will be fine.

WHY??????

As for reamer makers, I've seen some home made D reamers and even made a couple up myself.

The price of reamers out of the US or UK is about as reasonable as they would be from Canadian sources.

loosen the chamber slightly...


All that would do is reduce your accuracy and shorten brass life.

well if that's all he wants done he could get a wood dowel and wrap it with emery cloth and stick it in a drill and have at the chamber. Polish it up, take a few thou off.

then in a year or 2 will be looking for someone to rebarrel

I heard of one few years ago, but he was making only solid pilots for the price of a manson live so...
