[QUOTE="Mrvmax, post: 2069198, member: 114476"] I've been using the Hornady tool for a while and it seems to work well for me but after reading about the Sinclair tool I decided to buy it and try it out on my NOS Weatherby Mark V Alaskan and Nosler M48 Independence Handgun. Somewhere people were commenting about problems with the Hornady but I have never had an issue. I had to buy an extra delrin insert for the Sinclair so it would fit my Weatherby chamber. I started off using the Sinclair tool after watching their video on how to use it. I got all my measurements then decided to try the Hornady and compare. FYI I used the Hornady comparator tool to measure from the bullet ogive on both tools. So after using both tools I compared my results and there was a difference. Not much though, .001 between the Hornady and Sinclair. I cannot say I prefer one over the other, the Sinclair does not require a new modified case for each caliber but the delian insert on the Sinclair does not fit all rifles. I think both have their plusses and minuses but both ultimately worked well. [/QUOTE]
