Attn gunsmiths....help!

Anyone have a stash of c clips to retain reamer bushings? I sent one into orbit and when I pulled the reamer tonight I didn't notice I dropped my last one when I blew the chamber out with air and sent my bushing onto the apron.

Good news is that I have a fresh 6xc and a fresh 6x284 to wear out.

Manson? If so they usually send 5-6 of them with a new reamer. Mby you got spares you forgot about?

McMaster could get them to you faster than I could. $12.75 per 100. Order this weekend and likely have them no later than Tuesday.

I only have a few carbide reamers. All my HSS reamers use screws.

If you have any for 22-243, can you measure one up and see if that's the ticket. I don't have one left and measuring the groove is going to be me stuffing feeler gauges to get it.


Thanks either way.

I don't have anything Manson in 22. The one I linked fits 30BR and a few others. The groove dia on the 30BR reamer is .190" OD and a bit over .025" wide. If yours is smaller I'd think the next size down would be right. Measure that groove and see what you've got

Actually for a 224 I'd bet it's this one (5/32):
