Tight throat on PSA barrel - send out for reaming or get new barrel?


Recommended Posts

I was shooting my PSA barrel for the first time at a SC club match, and had a reload (1.1 OAL) have hard manual extraction at the end of the stage. The bullet got stuck in the rifling, and I had to finish the match with someone's else PCC because I couldn't find anyone with a rod to knock out the bullet. Apparently PSA barrels have tight throats!

 

I have two options here:

1. Find someone to ream the barrel's throat out.

2. Buy a new barrel.

 

I suspect #1 is going to be a lot cheaper than #2, but if there's someone who makes 9mm PCC barrels with good throats (preferably out to 1.16 COAL) that are ~$100, I'm game for that. Last resort is just spending the $200 on a 10.5" JP barrel, I guess. Unfortunately, I have no idea who to send the barrel to for reaming  - recommendations?
