    It will take any factory ammo. And it gives you some understanding of the care that went into the manfacture of the weapon.First you must understand that chamber spec.s give the minimum size and a tolerance above that.Production reamers are made to hit the high limit, and sharpened until they will no longer cut a minimum chamber.Match reamers are made to tighter specs. normally right at the minimum size, so there life (due to sharpening) is much shorter.Match chambers are held to much tighter tolerances for depth, diameter, out of round, concentricity to the bore, etc. there-by taking as many of variables to accuracy as possiable out of the picture.In addition brass life is greatly extended as it doesn't get worked as much in the reloading process, one rifle builder stated that with a good match chamber (30-06) you will burn out the barrel before you wear out the first 100 pieces of brass.I know that this is long but I hope it gives you some insight.
