A couple of things that I noticed on the drawing were of interest to me. First of all, there is .001 taper in the neck. This is a good idea for a no-turn situation that is often overlooked, given that the unturned neck is itself tapered. I wonder what the water capacity of the case is.

EDITOR’s NOTE: Boyd, the taper is something I placed in the mock-up drawing because we’ve found that to be useful with no-turn necks. However, the original reamer print from which I was working was for a .262 no-turn neck and that drawing does not include a taper, nor does the 22 BR-K reamer print. It is important that people understand this is just a “rendering” produced with Quick-Design software. For actual chamber specs, consult with Dave Kiff at Pacific Tool. Quick-Design software makes certain “assumptions” about case design that may differ from the actual reamer drawings.
