[QUOTE="Jester896, post: 1246819, member: 41793"] I primarily use Mo's Gauges but have a couple of RCBS for checking headspace of cases. One way to check your press to see if it cam over or not is to run the ram up and screw the die in until it touches. Then if you have resistance going back down you have a cam over type press. If it doesn't offer resistance the ram is a straight up straight down type. Try not to stress your press. You can get case dimensions from SAAMI.org for any case you have so you can check to see how out of spec it is if you are having issues. If you can see a strong bulge above the web you may want to hit them with a small base die to get them back closer to spec. [/QUOTE]
