[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 290192, member: 1521"] Larry, your tool looks nice. But I don't see how it would indicate actual headspace or seating distance from lands. That is, without firing a case till it's clicking on extraction, and using that as a reference/gauge zero. Now for seating, does the indicator adapter have holes for bullets? I'm used to using calipers with gizzies and comparator nuts myself. If your tool makes things easier, then I'll jump in line to get one. I love toys.. I agree that proper bumping falls under 'prevention' of case stretch. But I know of no proccess that will unstretch cases, and some cartridges will always stretch due to design(high body taper). These are known to need constant trimming. Proper bumping could certainly reduce stretching for these cartridges. And that would be tried and trued, rather than assumed. [/QUOTE]
