[QUOTE="woods, post: 683829, member: 6042"] There is a tool that will measure the jump for ALL your calibers and costs $25.00. It is from R-P Products called the C.O.L. E-Z Check. Made by an entrepreneur named Randy Reeves [email]r_reeves61@bellsouth.net[/email] (there is an underscore between r and reeves) , phone number 318-424-7867 It is a stainless steel rod with a removable brass tip and 2 lockable collets shown here with the Hornady OAL tool [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/RELOADING/DSCN0761.jpg[/IMG] You insert the tool down to the bolt face (make sure the firing pin is retracted) and lock the outermost collet [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/RELOADING/DSCN0760.jpg[/IMG] insert the bullet to the lands and hold there with a dowel (or the Hornady OAL tool if you have one) [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/RELOADING/DSCN0763.jpg[/IMG] insert the tool back down the muzzle to the bullet tip and lock the innermost collet [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/RELOADING/DSCN0762.jpg[/IMG] measure between the collets [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/RELOADING/DSCN0764.jpg[/IMG] Don't have to worry about the headspace on the modified cases and extremely accurate. The only variance comes with how hard you push on the bullet base and if you imbed it into the lands. __________________ [/QUOTE]
