Couple of questions Ron. What is your case forming procedure and what dies are you using? What do your case necks measure after firing? What do you mean by 'spider webbing'? Lastly, try either some Berger or Starke bullets. I had mediocre luck with the V-Max and Calhoons also. Heck, I'll even send you a handful of Starkes to try, and make sure to play with the seating depth. Unless your chamber has an unusually large neck area, the fact that it is generous at the base will not cause you any drastic accuracy problems. Also, if your gunsmith simply ordered a reamer without specifying the dimensions, chances are that the one he gets will be no better than what you have. The chamber Cooper uses is pretty much 'standard', just like all the rest of their chambers. I have had 2 Cooper 17 AH's, and know of at least 3 more, and all are shooters with the right compononts. Mail me if you like, or call 307-778-9374. I hate to see you do something as drastic as setting back and rechambering until all your options are exhausted...........particularly since Cooper says that the rifle is in spec. They probably are not lying. They likely did a chamber cast to check the chamber dimensions and I'm sure they would have fixed it if there was a problem. They really are a good company and want to make their customers happy. Dan C
