Default Reamer Usage

How much material (depth of cut) should you plan to remove with a .125"
reamer in brass for a precise bore?
(diameter, obviously the direction and position will be dictated by the
accuracy of the original drilled hole)

How fast would you turn it, or in a lathe the work piece?

What lubricant / coolant would you use?
