I plan to do my indexing off the pin. Reaming .003 it should have no problem holding center. Reamers have a hard time cutting off center unless you push them to hard. Is that a .453 reamer in your picture?
Regarding the gain twist. I maybe able to address that after my Ron Smith 13 twist 30 cal arrives in Nov. I can test it against my Douglas 14 twist. Both will have the same 32/35 chamber done by me. As close as I can get them the same, inside and out.
