Anyone have an accuracy one runout gauge?

[The Oregonian]

I have a runout gauge which I like other than the fact it takes hand pressure and hand turning, so the reading is dependent on applying the same pressure throughout, which is difficult when rotating the round. The accuracy one takes care of that and also allows other measurements to be taken (bullet runout, for instance).

I am leaning towards getting one but wanted to see if anyone here had any experience...they seem to get great reviews from everyone outside of the price.

What gauge do you have?

Looks like a nice tool, and I hate to be a party pooper, but I've done extensive testing on bullet runout and if you have good dies, it doesn't matter. At 600 yards accuracy was unaffected by run out of up to .005". even .010" caused little loss of accuracy. I was actually disappointed because I really thought a more aligned bullet was essential to top accuracy. Other factors like selecting the optimum propellant and even primer were much more able to affect accuracy.

I have Holland's concentricity gauge...

Ok, well you can't go wrong with the Accuracy One.

You may want to check out the concentricity gauge from 21st Century Shooting. Similar to the Accuracy One, but about $80 cheaper. I use one and it's well made and easy to use.

This is just opinion/suggestion:
Support original innovators, or innovations will stop coming to market.

AO being original and 21st being the copy?

AO was before 21st,, and I think the first v-block with a wheel & jewel indicator.

I ordered one yesterday and they are doing a run in a few weeks, so just be aware of th fact that they produce in batches and on is coming up.

I should have elaborated a bit more & said I cant find one here in Australia!.
Can get 21 century locally though so that is probably my answer.
