JayCee,

I feel more comfortable with the wooden dowel and the emery cloth as I have already the experience of the barrel polishing. And it is so much cheaper...

Lenard,

I did a search on Amazon.com for the R. Walkers book, but did not come up. Is it an older edition? Could you mention about the method used in this book?
Edit: I did find the book:

2-piper,

Thank you for your observation about the wandering of an unguided reamer in a conical choke.
The chokes are about 2" long and seem to have a short .25" segment that is parallel, then they open up a bit more towards the muzzle. With the use of a wooden dowel and emery cloth, the cutting area would be penetrating through the choke and should be self centering. As the choke opens up, the muzzle part of the choke becomes more parallel. I don't know if this is a problem or an advantage. Please correct me if I am wrong.
