[QUOTE="tony d willIiams, post: 2994076, member: 108777"] Quality calipers, definitely a safety issue. I had an old pair of calipers. I kept them on my reloading table, my better ones in the measuring device toolbox. One day the readings seemed funny. I checked them, and they would read a bit different each time. I have been using calipers and micrometers for 50 some years. Not operator error. I checked them with known thickness gauge plates. No good. Too much compression on powders, or incorrect diameters when prepping brass could produce errant barrel pressures. [/QUOTE]
