You can buy a 9mm clymer finishing reamer through  Brownells for around $80.

 

Finishing reamer, not a chamber reamer.

 

Or send the barrel to Patriot Defense, they do a great job fast.

 

For what it’s worth, I have a really high end carbide reamer that’ll cut any 9mm barrel out there no matter how hard it is. I can do it too if you like.

+1 on using PD’s reaming service. They did my Stock 2 barrel with great results. I sent them a few dummy rounds with different OAL, bullet profiles, etc. to make sure they had examples of everything I might load.  Turnaround was very fast. Just a couple days iirc.

I wonder how long of an OAL your magazines will hold. When I bought my Limited from PD earlier this year, I could load them pretty long and pass a plunk test (1.16") but some of my magazines would allow the rounds to get stuck when I loaded over 17 rounds (all have the Henning +3-5 base pad). When I shortened the OAL to 1.15" and under, the magazines ran fine. I'm not loading them for a specific power factor, but for best accuracy. They run +/- 1100 fps with a 124 RMR FP and Sport Pistol.

 

PD did their ream service as part of the package so I never knew what the factory chamber was. I also run a pair of 2011's that allow a long OAL so I can just load OAL to a "standard" and let them eat. The 2011's shoot everything great, but the Limited is picky about what it likes.
