Perfect
I decided after installing barrels the hard way for way too long, I would see if these are worth the money. They definitely are!

...still works
In this day and age of everything being disposable it is heartening when products continue to be supported years after introduction. I purchased the 11 degree, 3/4" cutter many years ago from Brownells and to this day they are still offering pilots for that product. I bought this .400 pilot in hopes that it would work for my Winchester 1910 401sl. It was a wee bit too small... it fit perfectly in the cutter so I ended up refacing an abused 40 S&W Glock barrel.

.357 BBL. Revolver Muzzle Brass Pilot
Used this with Brownells 45 degree, 5/8" chamfer cutter (#080-588-625) to re-crown my S&W 627PC & 686. The pilot measured .3445" diameter which was a good fit for my bore (.3455 & .3460") diameter. Purchase Brownells Facing & Chamfering Cutter Handle (#080-589-000) to use these together.

45 ACP-1 cylinder brass pilot
Ordered this to chamfer my 625PC 45ACP chamber openings/charge holes. The Q&A for the 45ACP-2 says the 45ACP-1 is the correct one for S&W 25/625. However, it does not fully fit in either my 625PC, or 325NG, cylinder openings to allow the 45 degree, 5/8" chamfer cutter to contact the cylinder. The pilot has two guide surfaces that measure: .4475" (throat) & .4775" (chamber). The throat end is fine. The chamber end is too large. My chambers measure .474" and .475" at the case ledge (where the case mouth headspaces on) and the pilot needs to be able to contact it to allow enough depth for the chamfer tool to make contact. Be aware it will have to be polished to a slightly smaller diameter to work in a S&W 625 45ACP chamber.
