Would a 30-30 Ackley improved reamer clean up the pitted shoulder area ?
Probably not, but it might be worth a chamber cast to find out. Assuming you can get the casting out past any 'lock ' caused by the errosion.
Another expensive option would be to developer a 30-30 extra long, have a reamer ground that arries the case shoulder forward the requisite amount, and have custom dies made.
There is 30-30 basic brass available that is over 3 inches in length and you just need a .005 or so ?
Could a 30-30 reamer be run a little deeper in the chamber and accomplish the same ?
