Default Rental Chamber reamers??

Is there anyone on here who might rent or loan a 25-06 reamer?? Had an ammo mishap and can not get the casing neck out of chamber with cerrosafe. No steel milling needed just clean out nickle plated Winchester case that seems welded to the chamber

Les

unless there is a 25-06 AI reamer available, not opposed to that option

Just throwing this out there but have you tried a bronze brush? Shove it in then pull it back...

2 items :
It would be extremely difficult to determine when to stop reaming without changing the headspace.

I believe the nickel will be harder than the reamer and ruin the cutting edge of the reamer.

There are other options available to remove the case

Have you tried putting it in the freezer?
Brass should expand and contract more than steel, maybe that will get it moving...

I have removed several using epoxy putty.
I plug the front of the chamber , and measure the amount of rod needed to go in from the breach.
I use an old Bronze brush to hold the epoxy, and jam it into the neck of the stuck case.
Works excellent.

I have a 25-06ai reamer in cowtown. I would deliver to a local to me gun smith to help a guy out if it wont damage it but won’t mail it out.
