[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1977012, member: 24284"] There is not a "go" that I know of for this. Someone will make you one at "custom cost". It takes experience, the same experience as gauging an Ackley. If you don't have the experience, find a real gunsmith that does. Thousands upon thousands of Ackley Improved chambers have been set-up this way. Only in the recent past have A.I. gauges been available, they are for the "newbies" that chamber. A.I. gauges won't work for your RCBS as they (AI) has 40* shoulder and your RCBS has a 35*. Go to [URL]https://mansonreamers.com/faqs/[/URL] for maybe a better explanation than I am prepared to give. The RCBS is gauged the same way Ackley Improved is. as they both can fire form from their 'parent' (.280 Rem.). Regardless of what the interdnet says, brass is NOT a headspace gauge. [/QUOTE]
