[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1571376, member: 10755"] No, it is 2 separate measurements. Firstly, fire a primed case only, then with a depth mic, verniers or straight metal rule, measure from the case head to the top of the primer. The other measurement of the firing pin is with the firing pin in the unlocked fired position. You do this by turning the cocking piece clockwise and unlock the bolt. Measure from the boltface to the top of the firing pin. A good set of digital verniers are adequate for these measurements. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
