When two names synonymous with precision meet, the results speak for themselves. That’s exactly what happened when Hornady, a titan in the world of ammunition, gave a nod to Manson Precision Reamers in a recent podcast. The conversation was a recognition of the critical role our custom chamber reamers play in supporting top-tier firearm performance.

For those who missed it, Hornady discussed their work with Manson at several points during the episode. Around the 6:04 mark, they talked about our relationship and the ways we’ve collaborated. At 11:23 and 16:36, our name came up again, underscoring the trust and respect they have for our work. And, in a moment that made our ears perk up, at 46:53 they even mentioned wanting to get a Manson representative (perhaps Ray himself) on the show in the future.

This podcast was more than a compliment. It was a testament to the fact that custom chamber reamers are essential to creating world-class results in firearms manufacturing and customization.

Why Hornady’s Mention Matters

Hornady is one of the most respected ammunition manufacturers in the world. Their name is practically shorthand for quality, innovation, and performance. For Manson to be featured in their discussion is significant because it means we are recognized as part of the process that helps Hornady maintain its reputation.

When they spoke about us, it was about the craftsmanship, the technical knowledge, and the reliability of our custom chamber reamers, all qualities that Hornady values because their own customers expect nothing less.

Custom Chamber Reamers in Precision Shooting

At Manson Precision Reamers, our custom chamber reamers are designed and built for one purpose: to ensure a perfect, repeatable fit between ammunition and chamber. In precision shooting, small variations can make the difference between hitting the target or missing by an inch. That’s why we treat every reamer we produce like the mission-critical tool it is.

Whether it’s for a production run at a large manufacturer like Hornady or for an individual gunsmith working on a one-off project, our reamers are engineered to exact specifications. The quality of the chamber affects everything from accuracy and consistency to safety, and there’s simply no room for error.

Hornady and Manson: A Shared Commitment to Excellence

Listening to Hornady talk about Manson in the podcast made one thing clear: we share the same DNA when it comes to our approach. Both companies believe in doing the job right the first time. Both understand that innovation only works when it’s backed by precision. And both know that the best way to earn trust is to deliver results, over and over again.

This shared commitment is why our custom chamber reamers are a natural fit for Hornady customer needs. They require tools that can meet demanding tolerances, stand up to repeated use, and help create chambers that perform flawlessly. We take pride in being part of that process.
