Using Cerrosafe instead of wax would give a much better idea of the chamber, especially if it was blocked long enough to include a bit of the rifling. The key is the length at which the rifling starts.

I'm leaning that way. I still have a lot to learn about reloading though. I'm unsure if i'd be too much pressure/bolt thrust if i reamed it to 72r

SKB, after googling your suggestion i found:

I'm going to cerosafe the chamber. I believe you are right on the money
