Finisher-Style Reamer for SAAMI-Spec Chambers This model is a finisher chamber reamer, designed to cut the chamber to final size and form the throat: Brownells+3Brownells+3Primary Tactical+3 SAAMI-spec geometry for .30-40 Krag ensures compatibility with commercial ammo and dies Cuts the full chamber and throat, delivering a ready-to-fire chamber when used correctly Ideal when you’re cutting only a few chambers or performing final sizing after a rougher reamer Clymer’s finisher reamers are renowned for producing chambers that support excellent accuracy, safe pressures, and smooth case life when paired with proper barrel work and headspace gauging. Premium M-7 High-Speed Steel Construction Like the rest of Clymer’s Rimmed & Belted Rifle Chambering Reamer line, the F3040KRAG is made from top-grade M-7 high-speed steel, chosen for its toughness, wear resistance, and ability to hold a sharp cutting edge. Brownells Schweiz+3Brownells Österreich+3Brownells Deutschland+3 Material: M-7 HSS – hardened and drawn for long service life Built for use with proper cutting oil and lathe setups When correctly cared for, these reamers are fully guaranteed and designed to give a lifetime of professional service This level of metallurgy means you can cut multiple barrels with consistent results and minimal tool degradation. 6-Flute, Right-Hand Cutting Design with Solid Pilot Clymer’s Rimmed & Belted Rifle Chambering Reamers share a common, shop-proven geometry—and the F3040KRAG is no exception: Brownells+3Brownells+3Primary Tactical+3 6 right-hand cutting, straight flutes for smooth, stable cutting Solid pilot helps keep the reamer aligned in the bore, reducing chatter and misalignment Integral throat – the throat geometry is built into the tool, ensuring a correct, concentric lead into the rifling This combination produces clean chips, a smooth surface finish, and minimal chatter, reducing follow-up polishing and helping maintain chamber uniformity. 7/16" Round Shank with 3/8" Square Drive For easy setup in a variety of professional tooling arrangements, the F3040KRAG uses the standard Clymer rifle reamer shank: Brownells+2Brownells Schweiz+2 Shank: 7/16" round Drive: 3/8" square drive for common reamer handles and lathe tooling This makes it straightforward to integrate into your existing lathe, tailstock, or dedicated reamer holder, depending on your chambering workflow. Rougher & Finisher System – Use as Your Final-Cut Tool Clymer’s system offers both rougher and finisher reamers in this line; the F3040KRAG is the finisher: Brownells+3Brownells+3Brownells Schweiz+3 Rougher reamers (sold separately) are typically .010" smaller in diameter and do not cut the throat, intended to save wear on the finisher when cutting many chambers. The finisher reamer (F3040KRAG) brings the chamber to final diameter and forms the throat to spec. If you’re a small shop or only cutting a handful of .30-40 Krag chambers, the finisher reamer alone is all you need to complete the job (used with proper technique and headspace gauges).
