[QUOTE="JFriesen, post: 2171493, member: 111289"] Right or wrong. This is how I measure distance to lands. Take a sized case and Dremel cut through the neck. Then I set bullets in the case way long. I repeatededly chamber and then measure until I get a consistent measurement that I am confident in. You can just squeeze or spread the brass neck to increase or decrease tension. Seems to work well for getting a reasonable COAL to work from. I tried the land marks on the bullet thing and found it too difficult to be consistent in visual judgement. who knows on the velocity. I’ve got a few rifles that shoot slower than book and 1 that is so tight chambered it hits max book speed below the starting load from the bullet mfg. [/QUOTE]
