Introduction

The T10667/T10668 Bald Eagle Floating Reamer Holder Kit provides excellent accuracy and con- trol when chambering gun barrels. The holder compensates for a small amount of misalignment between the chuck and tailstock, allowing the reamer enough free movement to remain aligned with the bore.

This type of holder permits the user to control the reaming process and release the reamer from action, preventing damage that can occur to a barrel when reamers bind.

This reamer holder is only designed for use with reamers that have properly fit bore bushings or solid piloted reamers that have the pilot bushing fitted to the bore. We recommend pre-boring the chamber a little undersize and using a roughing and/or a finishing reamer to complete the process.

Operation

This floating reamer holder is designed to comple- ment a precise setup—not make up for an inac- curate one. Before attempting to use the floating reamer holder, it is critical that every component used in your setup is adjusted as accurately as possible. Additionally, alignment adjustments should be indicated off the bore—not the outside of the barrel.

Because a floating reamer is not rigidly restrained like other methods of reamer control, it takes experience through repetition to use it proficiently. Before working with an expensive barrel, we highly recommend practicing on a scrap barrel until you are familiar with the feel and technique of using a floating reamer.
