Source for a piloted drill
« on: April 13, 2017, 07:03:27 AM »
Found a barrel liner for a 25/35 and now I need a 1/2" drill with a .250" pilot tip to bore the barrel. Could some one steer me to one? Track of the Wolf and Brownells don't have them.

Thanks Major, I checked their web site and found many drills but none with a pilot for my use.

Ken you may try and get in touch with John Taylor . He may have a lead on where to get one.  You may look into getting one for a larger bore and turning it down to .250  button. ,,DT

Thanks fellows, grinding the 1/4" pilot on a 1/2" drill will have to be done by some one else as I don't have a grinder for my lathe. My buddy will find some place to handle that.

Any of the chamber reamer manufacturers will have what you want. They will grind to any diameter you want and then sell you a floating pilot to whatever diameter you need.
