[QUOTE="cajun, post: 1826870, member: 9772"] For years myself and a lot of folks did the size by feel. It works but it is very subjective. To actually do it right you should probably remove the firing pin and your ejector depending on your bolt. i find the tool cheap abd quick and easy to use. And it gives you an actual number you can reference. The reason I bought mine. I was loading for a single shot encore. Unlike a bolt action you dont get that feel of bolt closing. Combine a long chamber with a minimum spec sizing die and you get 12 thou reszing and a case head separation on the second firing. [/QUOTE]
