45 DEGREE CHAMFER CUTTERS

A damaged or poorly-cut muzzle can really hurt accuracy; sharp edges on revolver cylinder chamber mouths can cause rounds to hang up going into the cylinder - a real problem when using speedloaders. Cure both problems with this cutter.

Handles STILL out of stock
The workmanship is nice. I don't have the same problem as the other reviewer with the pilot hole being too big. The only problem I have is having to make my own handle for the chamfer tool. Doesn't make sense they would stock the chamfer cutters but not the handles. Come on Brownell. Also, they don't stock the muzzle crown chamfer cutters that come with the pilot and handle. I purchased this to fix a Marlin factory muzzle crown fiasco in a 917v. The crown was cut at a 45 deg angle to the bore. WTH were they thinking?

It sucks!!!
I purchased the brownells t-handle, pilot and 45cutter and will have to say I am very disappointed in the results from using them. Paid over a hundred dollars just to barely cut the crown. Worked great at first but quickly goes dull and is completely useless after that. For some reason it wouldn't let me give 1 star review.
