[QUOTE="TracySes23, post: 1031637, member: 52763"] I also use small hole gauges to measure the neck bore of my chamber. You're correct, it's time consuming considering there's no room to adjust the small hole gauge while it's in the bore, at least not on my rifle. I adjust it in very small increments until I begin to feel resistance as I push it slowly through the neck bore. I've had to make as many as 8-10 adjustments to finally get the feel of any resistance, I then back it off slightly & approach that point of resistance a couple of more times to insure I'm measuring constantly. Extreme accuracy requires a very sensitive touch when measuring. my measurements are always within .0001" of each other. Spencer [/QUOTE]
