IndlovuReamer Central: list started on AR
Some of us have floated the idea of keeping a log of people who have reamers, and who would be willing to lend them to qualified gunsmiths in exchange for having access to the "reamer library'. This way the cost of renting reamers, and in particular, having new reamers made, would be substantially lessened for AR members. So far, it looks like we may ask the person "borrowing" a reamer from the library to put up a deposit in case it is damaged.
I have a list of people who are interested so faR, BELOW. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, PLEASE POST ON THIS THREAD, and i will add your name.
Thanks everyone.

2. Pinotguy 8x68
3. Gumboot 458 475 A&M
4. Boomstick 577 Belted mag

IndlovuRGB and others have brought up good points, but I would like to see how many would consider chancing their reamer. After all, there are reamer renals, and they take the sam chances!
