I've used this for several barrels I cut down with good results.

No idea on PTG, but I've used their Reamers in the past and had no issues!

I have done several, get the PTG 1964 pattern cutter, the pre 1964 looks nothing like any original garand crown

Shilling for 4D Rental again. Nothing in it for me, but the tools have always been sharp, shipped next day, great service.

Not everyone knows about tool rental service, great for a one-off where you don’t really want to make a big tool investment.

That would work but is not the proper crown (shape) for the garand

You could try the screw method. A saw a number guys do it on the cmp forums and gun boards with good results.
