  • PTG Reamer and Indicating rod and bushings are top notch tools for a Gunsmith. These are a must have in my opinion if you want to get the barrel dialed in and cut to perfection. The live pilot is the way to go, there are a ton of reasons why, but the ability to fit to a perfect barrel is the main reason.

    Im in precision machining in college this is what I want to do! Our teacher looked up the reloading specs on an A.R. and we made some bullet keychains of the 5.56. I love this stuff!

    I wish you would have shown you getting it all the way indicated in and removing your grizzly range rod from the bore then reinserting it without changing anything else. Every time you remove the indicating rod and replace it you’ll have to go through the whole process of indicating again. Is it ever truly indicated when using grizzly rods? No, Not if it can’t be repeated. The truth of it is, is that It’s pretty close and the reamers follows the bore. If you don’t agree make a video of you getting the same tir after removing and then replacing your indicating rod and showing the reading on your dial test indicator. Great video man

    Would you be better off using a floating reamer holder instead of relying on the accuracy of the tailstock alignment ? Just curious.

    • @vaughnprecision
      @vaughnprecision  4 роки тому

      The floating reamer follows the bore better, the bore has internal deflection so I find the final chamber to be more inline with the actual bore. Just my 2 cents

  • @jenpsakiscousin4589
    @jenpsakiscousin4589 4 роки тому

    How does that reamer holder work compared to the traditional lathe dog? Sometimes we get some chatter going when cutting the new 5R grooved bores. A floating reamer holder for regular round holes works but you loose the "feel" of hand holding

    In your opinion what bullet wieght is best for 6.5 creedmore ?? I Shot a medium size buck 140 lbs week ago was not impressed with overall performance. Did drop the deer but the bullet broke apart from jacket( not caliber fault but bullet type ) and didn't make complete pass through ( was a neck through shoulder shot ) I was shooting 120 grain Winchesters and shot was close at 60 or so yards going to load some for it and some test before next year's season

      Taylor Cannon it’s growing on me. I’ve got a little more work to do before I give it to the customer. But for the price, it’s hard to beat. The only thing I don’t like is the sharp edges it has, it’s not a deal breaker but it’s just a little different I guess, not use to it.

    And what happens when your indicator rod is bend? How do you know your indicating rod is 100% true? all your indicating becomes useless!

    • @lwilton
      @lwilton 5 років тому +1

      If you have a surface plate, a pair of V blocks, and a good indicator (and he has at least one of those), checking for a bent rod is trivial.
      In fact if all you want to know is if it is bent, you could forget the surface place and improvise a pair of vees out of wood. Just support the rod at the ends, put the indicator in the middle, and rotate the rod. If it is bent the indicator will wiggle.
