[QUOTE="velvetant, post: 1296549, member: 25670"] What caliber? Someone here might have one to loan out, imo your best choice. To answer your question, yes it can and has been done. Don't use loaded ammo. Brass is soft so don't go heavy when you screw the barrel on you can compress the brass. Removing the ejector will help with feel. Virgin brass is almost always on the short side so you may end up with headspace to short. The reason not loaded ammo is there is a chance the bullet may contact the lands and give you a false headspace reading. Again please try to get a real headspace gauge. [/QUOTE]
