I have 15 factory choke reamers from various periods and for various gauges ranging 28g to 12g. (two of them are marked as being made by Hayes). 7 of them are finish reamers and the rest of roughers. The roughers are all straight tapers (checked with a straight edge). 2 of the finishers are straight as well. The other 5 finishers do have an ever so slight bow on the cutting edge. shaped like () if you will. The straight edge rocks just a hair.
