[QUOTE="Abolt, post: 1041055, member: 61346"] I'm having a little trouble with my hornady oal gauge with my 270. I am getting a wide range of values so I cannot use any of the data. I am using this with a browning abolt 270 and using hornady 140g btsp My first three readings I measured from the case head to the tip of the bullet and came up with: 3.3265 3.3280 3.3250 These are all fairly close and could be caused by the soft point. Now this is where my problems started, I put the insert on my calipers that measures from the ogive and these are the readings: 2.7760 2.7830 2.7805 2.7615 2.7535 2.7755 2.7740 2.7535 2.7550 This seems to be a very wide spread just looking for ideas on what I could be doing wrong. Thanks [/QUOTE]
