Tapered Touch Hole Reamer
« on: August 19, 2013, 10:55:03 PM »
Hi Folks!
In Muzzle Blasts  May 2013  I read with interest Ask the Master by Jack Brooks. He made a tapered touch hole reamer for thick walled barrels. So I made me one, and it works very vell on a Pedersoli Brown Bess cal 75  and my cal 66 snap lock ;)

Good day Runar; I know the depth the reamer is inserted the larger the hole becomes. When the touch hole on your Brown Bess was completed, what was the smallest diameter at the inside wall ?? Thanks, AJ
