[QUOTE="cstilt, post: 316317, member: 19720"] I tried using a rod when i first wanted to find the OAL when I started loading for my rifle. I wasn't happy with the results. To me it seemed a bit harder to get consistant results. I even tried using a dowel rod that fit the bore and instead of a marker I used a razor blade so I could hopefully get a better reading than with a marker. My results seemed to vary a few thou. That's when I decided to sacrafice a piece of brass and split the neck with a saw like most others have mentioned. I found my results much more repeatable like that. I have that same piece of brass put up right now so I can do it all over again for the next bullet I try. [/QUOTE]
