DESCRIPTION

Lock-N-Load C-1550 Curved OAL Gauge
by HORNADY


Product Overview:

Trying to increase the accuracy of your hand loads? The Hornady Lock-N-Load Overall Length Gauge is one of the best kept secrets to accurate reloading. This tool allows reloaders to precisely measure their rifles freebore to quickly and easily determine the "proper" bullet seating depth in their firearm. By having an accurate measurement of freebore reloaders can significantly improve their rifles accuracy by tailoring their bullet seating depth to their rifle. A few thousandths of an inch change between the bullet and the rifling can make the difference between just so-so accuracy and that tack-driver performance that leads to bug-hole groups.

To use the Lock-N-Load Overall Length Gauge, Hornady caliber-specific Modified Cases are required for use (sold separately). These Overall Length Gauge Modified Cases are made for all common cases from the 17 Remington to the 500 Nitro Express and are oversized to accept the same bullets you're reloading.

    The

    Lock-N-Load® O.A.L.

    Gauge is universally acclaimed as the most accurate, easy-to-use and reliable method of regulating seating depth and the resulting "jump" to the rifling. For all autoloader, lever-action, or pump-action rifles. Also fits all bolt-action and single-shot firearms. Inserts into chamber through ejection port. Not compatible with Adapter "D" or short-bodied cases. Achieve precise bullet seating depth. To use the

    Lock-N-Load® O.A.L.

    Gauge, you will need a Modified Case (sold separately) to fit your firearm's chamber and thread it onto the gauge. These specially prepared modified cases are threaded at the case-head and have a .002" oversized neck to accept the same bullets you intend to load. This is critical, as the

    Lock-N-Load® O.A.L.

    Gauge dimensions obtained will be accurate to .001". These results cannot be attained with competitive products, which use a simulated bullet with an arbitrary shape.
