[QUOTE="Svashtar, post: 1954082, member: 112241"] Great thread, thanks. As far as comparators, the Sinclair hex nuts seem to get the most use, but I also have comparator bodies from Hornady (good), Sinclair (about the same, maybe a little nicer, and they have an XL one with longer body to check the base to shoulder measurement on loaded ammo, as well as cartridge cases for headspace), and Whidden GW (also longer body, superb workmanship). I use inserts from Hornady and Sinclair in all of them which fit interchangeably. You can also have one on each caliper blade if you want to measure and sort batches of bullets by measuring bearing surface. It doesn't matter which insert is used, as long as you're consistent, so I usually use the Whidden body with the Sinclair inserts. Whidden also sells their own bushings for their body, but I didn't bother. [/QUOTE]
