[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1924464, member: 94491"] Go should be saami minimum spec for your chamber, field gauge should be .010" longer (saami max spec) the "no-go specs will vary my manufacture but around .004-.006" longer than go gauge . Ther are still manufacturing tolerances to consider but generally these are kept very tight on gauges and reamers. The actual number/amount really is moot just use the gauges correctly and there really is no need to know the numbers for most people. If you want to know exactly what size your chamber is, then a chamber cast is the way to go. This assumes it's a saami spec chamber--- you can always check with the gauge manufacture for the gauge specs. If it's a "wildcat" then you should definately confirm specs. You can always go to the saami website and look up saami chamber specs for min/max dimensions. If you need a gauge to check or set headspace they are available to rent fairly inexpensive. [/QUOTE]
