How many mil on average are you taking out with your emery whirligig, J.C.?
I think the magic words are "piloted in the bore".

I would like to thank all of you who have offered help and advice. I have ordered the adj reamer, 34" T-handle and 6 different size bore bushings. I will make the other bushings myself. All of your advice and warnings have been documented and I feel confident that the job will come out the way it's intended. I won't be checking any posts any more as I no sooner get my request for no more sarcasm or criticism posted and some sneaky little ba stard like 'homeless joe' has to stick his unwelcome nose in. I'm actually sorry I started the f'n thread and yes I have a thin skin and that's because I can. Thanks again C.Troy

How many mil on average are you taking out with your emery whirligig, J.C.? Jack that is a trick question. Not a lot. When I saw it done no measuring instrument was used apart from a Galazan choke gauge. Later the gun was patterned to compare to previous choke. It worked out well. Maybe a lucky result like José's. Granted, it is a rudimentary method and yes completely agree with the magic words. JC

I should start off by stating that I strongly agree with Jim in that one can do with one's possessions whatever one wants.
Agreed...it's Jims gun to screw up if he wants to. jOe, no screws involved. We are talking about fixed chokes here. Do pay attention! JC

Actually I didn't mean to be critical of the centrifugal abrasive method. I think JL mentioned a long time back that he had successfully opened a choke eccentrically (more off one side and moron the other?) with a rattail file to move POI so anything is possible for those who have the skill and judgment to make it work. That "moron" thing came from proprietary bicycle tubing. Forget the feller who had this line of titanium pipes but it had "moron" the ends thus Moron tubing. But that "Walker" method of handling an unpiloted reamer ( Mike Orlen used to promote it with a little sidebar on his business site) seems especially iffy in the on-axis dept.

Yeh joE, Annual Crankypants Day rolls around again and yOu are there. I like that line "I have a thin skin cause I can!" Saw one of the W&S712's you were talking about. Didn't look that bad; weird wood-on-wood buttplate.
