[QUOTE="Kevin Thomas, post: 368748, member: 15748"] Hey Tom, Bear in mind that all chambers are slightly different. The gage allows you to measure this dimension and establish a baseline for YOUR chamber. Sizing, from that point, is a matter of rechecking the sized case until you see the head to shoulder dimension make some movement. Varys with each application, but even .001" can now be measured and set when you adjust your dies. For some applications, you may want to induce more, say. .003" or .004" to assure reliable function in all circumstances. This is, with the gage, it now becomes entirely YOUR call. And yes, you'll use a FL sizing die, or a body die to do this. Alway liked the quip from LE "Sam" Wilson; "You don't [U]know[/U] what you [U]think[/U], you only [U]know[/U] what you [U]measure[/U]!"
