300/221 chamber reamer

[Iltis]

Hello,
i´m new inside your forum, i come from germany and the caliber 300/221 is nearly unknown here and you have problems to get good informations about it or the hardware for it here,
so my question is if anybody knows a dealer where i can order a chamber reamer for 300/221
i would be pleased about every comment
Thanks

Welcome :grin:
Places to order reamers

SSK of course
http://www.sskindustries.com/

Brownell's ( http://www.brownells.com )
CLYMER ( http://www.clymertool.com )
http://www.z-hat.com/ReamerList.htm

the confusing part is that only SSK can license use of 300 whisper name
so you will find the reamers under other names 300 Fireball, or 30-221 or 300/221 for example.

Your gunsmith can also use a 221 fireball chamber reamer then follow it with a 30cal neck reamer to get the same effect, which might be cheaper. You'll also use 221 fireball headspace gages to check for chamber depth.

My PTG says 30-221. Ron

Hello,
Many thanks for all these links, i have send an email to some of the dealers and got a positive answer with price for shipping and so on

I've done 7 or 8 barrels so far with the reamer I got from them and it works great. Its listed as a 300-221. Price was reasonable too.

Don't some companies rent the reamers ???

[Artful]

Yep, It's an option with some - It's been a long time since I had anything like that I did. But ask 'em.

I would never rent a tool like this, if you own it then you always have it whenever you want to use it
the advantage we have here in germany is that the value of the $ is so low and the euro´s value is so high
if i would buy this chamber here in germany at Triebel-guntools then i would have to pay 189 euro for it, that are at about 290$, so buying outside my country is always cheaper then buying inside

Hello Iltis,

Just check out, but I think the importation /exportation of reamers is regulated in your country.
I am from France.
Ounce, I placed an order through Brownells, that for what ever reason went through Germany before being shipped to France, and the German customs had the kindness of removing the reamer from the package although Germany was not the end destination. B....rds!!:mad:

So customs openned a package that was routed from USA to France and removed the reamer and what put a note in there - confiscated your property as it was traveling? That's messed up. Customs should only be examining packages that are destined for their own country. :eek:

Hello,
Reamers are free for everyone inside my country, only barrels, ammunition and so on is regulated, the german laws are mad, you can buy a salut rifle with a complete bolt and it is free for all, but buying a single bolt without beeing allowed to is not possible
i think that the gouvernement wants to control the volk and fears the volk cause of all the bullshit that happens here
