Lynn, There really are 2 popular taper standards in the real world. <g> One is the standard .250 inch/foot in the aviation community, the other is the non aviation BROWN & SHARPE. Neither world seems to know the OTHER TAPER exists. Brown & Sharpe taper reamers are approximately .500 inch/foot. Quality machine tool supply houses sell the Brown & Sharpe reamers. I gave $30+ some years ago for the size you need.
