[QUOTE="Buckys, post: 2702053, member: 107750"] When I measure distance to the lands using a Hornady gauge in a Weatherby chamber, and I am gentling tapping the projectile forward, it stops at the beginning of the freebore. If I tap a smidge harder, it keeps moving forward towards the lands. This gives me a pretty good read point on the distance to the freebore and the delta distance to the lands (which is not precisely the same as the length of the freebore). It also gives me a really good feel for how much wiggle room that freebore allows the projectile to lose concentricity with the chamber/barrel (it is really, really tight). [/QUOTE]
