I bought this along with some other modified cases and the first time using it was impressed on how simple it is to use. Found out that my oal in my tikka was .017" shorter than the max oal that the hornady book stated, now I know exactly where to seat that bullet in that gun. I would recomend also the lock-n-load bullet comparator set to get the most accurate use of this tool because almost all bullets vary a few thousandths in length but the ogive of the bullet is allways a more accurate reading. Hands down for hornady for making reloading even easier.

very low quality. got my modifed case and was walking to the shop and stumbled droped it. hit the gravel drive way. it broke at the threads. really hit gravel and grass from 2 1/2 3 feet and snap.and i got a hornady headspace kit and its off 2 to 3 hundred of a inch compared to the rcbs i had get when i found out these off by this much. when your shooting 5 600m makes a large difference. bottom line dont buy cheap crap

If you reload and are into a more precision type load the distance to the lands is critical for seating the bullet. Some makes like to be jammed and some like a jump of anywhere from .010 to .060" This tool will allow you (with some practice) to estimate the jump to the lands in your barrel.

In combination with the "modified case", this tool allows one to determine the distance "jump" of desired projectile to rifling leads. The tool is accurate with any profile projectile and is repeatable. This is one of the critical measurements needed to create the most accurate, lowest Standard Deviation hand-crafted ammunition. Excellent and easy to use tool. Thanks Hornady!

This tool allows me the ability to determine the correct set the jump for each bullet type.
