other important factors are the effects on the
transitions from the bowl to the bore and from the
bore to the back bore. Another consideration is the
change in the length of the bore (which increa

Normal fractional drill bits often are sized every 1/32". Bore sizes
correspond to numbered drill bits, and the difference between numbers
is usually only a couple of thousandths. A number 3 bore is 0.213", and
number 12 bore is 0.196". There are ten number drills covering a range
