308 Reamer

The cost of a solid pilot finishing reamer and Go gauge plus shipping are
PTG = AU$343
Brownells - Clymer = AU$354
Manson = AU$416

I am now inclined to go with Brownells - Clymer. I assume Grumpy you are saying Clymer ar OK?
@BlueFlyer
At those prices it would be cheaper to have someone ream it for you. Try MAB in Brisbane or Meroo gunsmithing in Rylestone NSW.
You could have it threaded and chambered for less than the cost of the reamer

Hi Bob
Thanks for the thoughts. All under control, another member on this site from the NT sent me a couple of chambered barrels that came out of donor rifles for other projects. They are perfectly suitable for this "truck gun" project.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
