I read about this being passed around a while back. I have a 1980 model 63 and a friend’s model 617 that I would like to clean up for easier loading.
Thanks in advance, Chaz

I am not having any luck finding the forum reamer. If someone has one they would be willing to rent to me I would greatly appreciate it. Cannot even find one to purchase, everything is out of stock.

I sent it to Jebus35745 back in June.
I asked him about it a couple of weeks ago because I have another one that needs reaming - but he hasn't replied.

FYI,

Larry is in the hospital with some heart problems. Probably won’t get home before 2023. If I think of it, I will remind him about the reamer after he recovers a bit.

Thanks for the info.

Under the circumstances it is more than understandable that he hasn't replied yet!

Here's wishing him the best, I'll remember him in my prayers.
 
I will send the reamer to bc38 as soon as I start driving, should be early Feb. had a quadruple bypass last Tuesday Dec 27. Too much stuff downstairs, Larry

Glad to hear you're recovering Larry. Hope the bypass gives you a completely new lease on life! I sent you my address by PM.
Thanks!
 
Doing great, Friday was my 2 week check back with the surgical team. She said I can drive so I will send the reamer to BC38 on Tuesday. Try to keep it bouncing to people that need it. Remember not to turn it backwards, it will ruin the reamer. If needed, start a new thread looking for people that need it. Larry

Best of luck to you for a full and speedy recovery. I had the same thing this past 12 Sep, started cardio rehab 4 Jan (covid postponed it 3 weeks) and am doing just great. I'm no longer short of breath, blood oxygen has gone up 6-7%, lost ~40 lbs, and BP is now in the 125-122/65-60 range.
Not bragging, I just understand firsthand what a tough time you went through and want you to know how much better things are going to get for you!
Happy New Year!
 
M 18

I have a m 18 was giving me trouble with some brands of ammo. I tooc my Lyman bore cam to it and saw some burrs in the chamber ends left from manufacture. I took some wheeler bore lapping compound on a patch and spun inside, being careful to not go past the chamber area into the (wad da ya callit) part of the cylinder. I no longer have trouble with the ammo that works. I think much of the trouble is because the DA revolvers must extract all six at one time vs only one as with the single actioned ones.

I am not familiar with using these but I just checked Brownells and they have several .22 varieties, (short, LR, WMR etc) in stock.
 
I sent the reamer on to Rodfac back in May of 2023.
I emailed him 3 weeks ago asking if he still had it, or if not, who he sent it to.
I haven't heard from him, and it looks like his last visit to the foru was September 2023.
Anybody know what happened to it?
I have a Chiappa that needs reaming BAD...

I will let him know he is missed.
