I had a couple of questions on my tapered choke reamer and here's a pic of it that's been posted on the Fox site in the past. It's something I came up with myself, not available commercially as far as I know. Reamer is inserted from the breech and the farther forward (toward the muzzle) it's run, the more open the choke. Same concept as done by Fox and other period makers. Of course I check often during the procedure for the desired choke constriction. The bronze pilot bushings are sized to the bore and the reamer cuts absolutely concentric. I made up umpteen bushings for 12-gauge in size increments from .720" diameter to .750" for Super-Foxes. The reamer and its drive rod will do barrels up to 36" long. I'm not in the business but will do this choking work for good friends as I have time.
