[TPIN] GR Drill Sizes

[Glenn Bengry]

Drilling out the throat makes the throat longer than it was designed for.  And the backbore is shorter since the straight tube throat has taken the place of that tapered spot.  If the maker creates a throat size for you, you theoretically get the proper length throat and the correct length and tie in to the backbore.
