Yes that's the style we use, it passes through the bronze bush and is supported I the roller bearing so it cuts straight.

Did I? Read it again. I said the taper was less on a machine reamer - but not non-existent.

How do you ream right to the bottom of the hole. It must be longer than required as you cannot cut the botyom of the hole with a reamer.

Other than the tiny lead you can ream a blind hole especially when you’ve drilled just slightly under so the chamfer left is Minimal defending something that everyone knows has bored the **** out of me now

Machine reamer has no taper just the cutting edge lead
If I’ve got to make a interference fit I’ll put one up in a cylindrical grinder and kiss the outside
