.357 max reamer
« on: December 09, 2007, 04:47:12 PM »
I have a .357 mag. barrel on order, is someone circulating a rechambering reamer for .357 Maximum?
Please advise me by PM if you have one and the conditions of use, I repeat, the barrel is still on order, I do not have it yet.

Don,

Leftoverdj had one for rent at one time, he posts at Handloads and Marlin Owners regularly, Shaner here had one too at one time.

Yeah, me too, I just sent the gun in last week. When it comes back I'll probably fool with it in .357 Mag for a while before I'm ready to rechamber. I'd have no qualms in popping a deer with the .357 mag but the Colorado DOW does have qualms, they require a minimum of 1000 ft.lb. at 100 yards from a rifle, although handguns only require 550 ft.lb. at 50 yards so a .357 handgun is OK, go figure!
The story of David & Goliath only demonstrates the superiority of ballistic projectiles over hand weapons, poor old Goliath never had a chance.
