45-70 chamber reamer loan?

[smkummer]

I was wondering if it is possible to rent or loan a 45-70 chamber reamer? I may have found a Danish rolling block that almosts chambers a 45-70 and understand that it was a pretty easy job to rechamber to 45-70. thanks

I recommend that you read the posts at this link, as it has some good info on this rifle and chambering. It seems that the original chamber is some .012" larger than the 45-70 in the web area, and may be an issue. It also seems that there is more than one chambering in these rifles, so you need to be sure of what you have.
And yes, reamers are available to rent, just do a simple search. I have used 4D reamer rental before.

I wouldn't expect .012" to be an issue.
