[QUOTE="Csbc4fun, post: 2326896, member: 114785"] I agree 100%. Even reamed my comparator to 0.256” so that I would be measuring the exact spot that touches the lands on my 6.5. Could not accept comparator manufacturer tolerances. (McMasterCarr $25) What I found was when the overall was the same the base to ogive was very near the same and the overall is a quicker easier measurement check. I understand I wasn’t getting down to perfection, I was just doing a reasonable sort of 500 ELDMs for my purposes. Kinda 90/10 thumbnail look. Was shocked to find a few per hundred 0.007” longer and shorter, all the rest within 0.001”. I did the same on burgers and found them to be much more consistent. Still shooting up the ELDMs and having a blast doing it. [/QUOTE]
