Noticed that Reeder will rechamber your 32 mag Marlin to 327. Is this something that a home boy gunsmith could do with a proper reamer?

I wouldnt say so Stan. I would send a project like that to Mic McPherson. Remember, besides the rechamber, the action would have to be lengthened to accomodate the longer cartridges. Mic already does this for heavy bullet 357s and 44s in the Marlin.

After hand reaming a BFR Hornet to K Hornet I wasn't expecting 32 to 327 in a rifle chamber to be a big thing. My big concern was reaching the chamber with the reamer through the back of the receiver with the barrel still in the rifle. Reeder says he removes the barrel. Yo Dawgs... You got contact info on this "Mic McPherson?" Send it to me...

As a side note it sounds like Mr. McPherson may be the guy I need to see about having a 30-30 336 rechamberd to 38-55.
