Yes, I see your point now. .219 would be the correct dimension. That would be the diameter at which the bullet would first contact the lands. If you used .224 (which you wouldn't, but I obviously would)   the bullet would be fully seated into the lands.

Thanks for straightening me out, I got it now.

Well that wouldn't be very useful. Yours is a lot better tool.

Yeah, enough that it finally sank in. The chamfer's not needed, but if it was .219 dia. at the face it should still work. It's easier to get a true hole by boring or reaming than with a chamfer tool, so that would be the more accurate way to do it.


Hey, the wife just called, my crow's ready to eat.  It's a big one this time.
