I need some input.
I'm getting ready to press in my barrel.
My barrel measures .908" in diam.
The barrel opening on the front end of my milled receiver measures .899"
From what I've read in other threads and forums, It's recommended to have the opening on the front trunnion no more than .001" smaller than the barrel diam. or else it could crack the trunnion..or in my case the receiver. I don't want to take any chances since this is a milled receiver.
I need to open up the barrel opening from the .899" to .907" which is .008".
What's the best tool to remove that little of material and remove it evenly?
Would a cylinder hone work? Would a reamer be overkill?
