[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 477746, member: 25383"] if I remember right I own eight sets of calipers in lengths from 4" to 8". Some are dial and some are digital. I use a pair of digital Starretts most of the time simply because they are handy. I also have Brown & Sharpes and a pair of Fowlers. I like the B&S best, but there's not much wrong with the Starretts either. The Fowlers seem to go thru batterys quicker. But when I'm actually reloading, I use a pair of Mitutoyo dial type 4" long. I can reset the zero in about a minute, and they are very durable (I bought mine in 1970). I do not like the Starrett or B&S dial types calipers. I've never really seen any serious advantage to the digital ones, and there are things the analog ones will do better gary [/QUOTE]
