Thinking of building a sub 375-08, 375-308, 375-08 Jaguar. Does any body have a reamer I could possibly rent? thanks

Check with Devin at Sinarms and Jim Briggs at Northland. If they don't have it, they can steer you in the right direction.

Would it be possible to rent a .308 reamer with the removable pilot and put a .375 pilot on it. Suppose you would have to throat it longer than the .308 reamer, is this even remotely how a machinist works?

You would also need a 375necking and throating reamer. Then it would be seperate machining steps. prolly be cheaper to just buy a 375-08 reamer.

This is one of the reasons I have never got into machining, the other is the cost. I weld and grind this is the extent of my machining. :)

I weld for a living, but machining is much easier!

I shoot thermite welds, not exactly what most people think of when talking about welding. My "machining" is measured with a 24" straightedge after grinding. ;D

as long as your not running the same repetitive part day after day.

Hunter2, PTG charges $95 for a solid pilot reamer, If you call them and they have a print on file there is no extra charge. You may find one on ebay also, I Have bought a couple there for about what a rental would cost. of course finding what you want may be difficult.
