    What is the difference in chambers


    I was on CBI's web site and saw that they had a 260 rem and a 260 rem match, what is the difference?

    Just a guess, the match is longer freebore for the longer heaver bullets

    Yes, although I'm not exactly sure what the 260s is, but the only difference is the length of the neck

    Usually tighter than standard freebore diameter and freebore length is spec'd to certain bullet lengths as a minimum. If it's a true match reamer it can be a total custom chambering.

    Best thing is to look at the reamer print to know for sure.

    Why not ask CBI? Or CBI main dealer Jim Briggs?
