I made these several years ago, but don't sell them.  The spiral fluted one works beautifully, but I don't cone many barrels.

Ed Hamburg is the guy that makes a coning tool that will fit many calibers. I bought one from him and works pretty good.

Redheart, His name is Ed Hamburg and goes by Longknife on this site. You can look him up in the members list. I don't have his phone number.
He also has a tutorial on how he uses his tool. Do a search on coning a barrel and you should find it.
