Looking for a finish reamer for a 22 Savage HP , cant find a used one have bought before from PT&G and Manson.
Looked at PT&G because of the expansive web site , they only list the High Power as a CIP spec .
So should I look for a SAAMI specification reamer?

I couldn't find the 22 Savage listed in the SAAMI specs but I didn't spend a lot of time. The European C.I.P. drawings (known as the 5.6 x 52R) are in metric but a C.I.P. reamer will work just fine.

FWIW - The 22 Savage is considered an obsolete cartridge in the U.S.A. and it's availability in the U.S. is a bit sketchy but is still sold in Europe.
