[QUOTE="misterc01, post: 1895682, member: 109160"] In my experience with the Hornady OAL gauge, it took me a while to get the "feel" for it. I found after I inadvertantly "stuck" a few bullets in the lands that sharpened my "feel" for it. Plus it depends on the bullet you are using. ELD/VLDs are a little harder to feel. And it does help, to have Hornady make a modified case with a once-fired case from YOUR rifle. I also found using both the Hornady and Sinclair comparators as a way to double check my measurements. They are different between the two, but you get two sets of date. I use an average of 10 measurements on each gauge. I have not started using my newly-acquired Forster Datum kit yet. [/QUOTE]
