This fits Mosin Nagant Rifles
Good quality pilot, no wobble when used in the proper size bore. I had a tighter bore Mosin and this worked perfectly. I also ordered the .311 steel pilot to fit my Type 53 Mosin. If you only plan on buying one pilot to work in all Mosins get this one. If your bore is a little bigger, use a cloth patch to make a tighter fit. This pilot will be loose in the more traditional .311 bore size.

Good quality product
The pilot has the look of good quality. It also fits both the muzzle and cutter real well.

Good tool, poor quality
Great fitting pilot, but in the middle of me cut & crowning my SLR107ur, it broke in half - yes I used cutting oil, and stopped to clean filing off cutters every few turns while going slow - could be the pilot may be a fraction to small allowing movement/friction, and causing flex where it broke
