WTS: Various Chamber Reamers and Range Rods.
The text in the photos make this all kind of Self-Explanatory. I'm selling these Chamber Reamers that I purchase brand new several years ago for some rebarreling projects I was working on.
Some of you may or may not recall that I had rebarrreled my K31 Swiss Rifle. I rechambered it in the 6.5 Mauser cartridge and I liked the mild recoil of this cartridge so much that I decided to buy a dedicated 6.5 Tikka rifle. (I reverted my K31 back to its stock configuration with no ill effects)
I then got a wild hair up my butt and decided to rebarrel the Tikka rifle in the same 6.5 Mauser chambering but, with a 26" barrel rather than the 23" barrel that the Tikka came with. Success: even though it turned out to be a nose heavy rifle.
The 223 Akley Improved Chamber Reamer is one I also bought a year or two after completing the K31-Project. I'd gotten my confidence up in being able to successfully rebarrel and rechamber my own barrels by then.
I turned and spiral fluted my own shorter (but still way too heavy for my liking) barrel for my 223 Remington Tikka-Lite rifle. I then got another wild hair up my butt and decided to make my own Carbon-Fiber-Wrapped-Barrel for this same 223 Remington Tikka Lite Rifle.
It was a shorter 17" long Carbon-Fiber-Wrapped-Barrel that I'd made and installed. The factory barrel length was about 23". I knew I'd be losing some velocity if I stayed with the shorter barrel and the 223 Remington chambering.
I decided to chamber my DIY Carbon-Fiber-Wrapped-Barrel in the 223 Akley Improved chambering to bring my velocities back in line with a full-length barrel. This gave me both the lighter varmint rifle I was after, and it allowed me to retain the accuracy it had before.
The last item I'm selling is a 30 Caliber Range-Rod. I bought this about ten years ago when I did my very first rebarreling project. I rebarreled and rechambered my old Lee Enfield rifle.
I rechambered it in what some might think is an odd-ball chambering. I made it into a 308-303. (true 30 caliber 308 bullets and 303 brass) I could use the same brass as the 303 necked down to 308 caliber. It worked out great cause I had a few 30 caliber rifle bullet molds at the time that I could use to feed this Enfield with.
Sorry for the long-winded descriptions but, all of this to say that these Chamber Reamers and Range Rods were used successfully with good results. They are still in excellent condition. If it turns out that no one here is interested in any of these items well, you still got some background information about these items out of it.
I can accept either a Postal Money Orders or a money transfer via the Zelle App.
I canceled my PayPal account a few weeks ago. They had become far too cumbersome to deal with, so I had to let them go.
Thanks for taking the time to look.
223 Akley Improved Reamer is SOLD pending receipt of payment. Payment is in the mail.
This leaves the three Range Rods and the 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser Chamber-Reamer still available.
