Concentricity Gauges?

[dhbikerczar]

What are the current options for concentricity gauges? Is the Accuracy One still the good standard? I bought a Hornady about 10 years ago, and i think I'd like to try one that I can also check the necks pre-loading so I have a feeling it might be time to upgrade.

It is very precise. I'm happy with it except on flanged brass. The Accuracy One seems like it might be a bit better, but not sure.

Both of these are miles above the Hornady or RCBS.

I know they're merchandised as 'concentricty gauge' but that's not what they measure, and not what you want.
What matters is runout,, total indicated runout (TIR).
Best for this is a V-Block setup.

The Accuracy One is beautiful

Accuracy One Concentricity Gauge

The Accuracy One Concentricity Gauge measures the internal and external neck runout of a cartridge case as well as seated bullet runout.

I have the Hornady but I think it's time to upgrade. What do you mean by flanged brass?
