You know, I never thought of that. I will try it tomorrow morning and give back report. I will try different slight back offs.
super thanks Dr. Vette!!
Good Saturday Scotty!
Nice answer. Might I ask what you are using for powder and your muzzle velocity :):)
You always come thru for me Scotty! Super thanks
Thank you!
Thank you for the pics RL338
Something is not adding up so I am going to call Lee Precision on Monday or Tuesday and get their discernment. I will update all with Lee Precision explanation thereafter. Could very well be just me! ;)
Thanks again

I was about to order some Nosler 7mm 150gr AccuBond Long Range bullets for a 7mm 08 Weatherby Vanguard Compact rifle but saw some reloaders mention they have to seat the bullets very deep into the case neck. I then decided I better measure the COAL length offering of the rifle's magazine for...
Upon returning back to reloading for my 338 win mag, I have encountered a "possible concern" with 45 out of 50 Nosler cases (fired 2-3 times)
I also have many other brass manufacturers (Federal, Winchester, Hornady) but am not experiencing this scenario below:
I use a Redding body die to bump...
Wow good people and experts. I sure am glad I thought to get back on this forum. Every single expert advice is well taken and hopefully will be remembered going forward.
I have one other concern, but I am going to open a new thread even though it is semi related.
Thank you, every single...
Scott that is what I have done in the past years ago, but been away from this for a bit long time so I wanted to make sure on that.
Scotty! Is this you from the Adirondacks?
I am still the same Steve you sent some free cases to me when I first joined 10-11 years ago and you stood up for me a...
Thanks to you Joe and Mark. So it appears I do not necessarily need the "Go, No Go, Field gauges"
I was thinking I was missing some very critical. Currently I use the Hornady tool and comparator with both inserts and bushings.
Again thank you both for saving me money and concern
Super thanks Mark!
I do have the Hornady set but my understanding is this would work for bottle neck cases but not for magnum belted cases since one should be measuring headspace off the belt and not from the head? Am I incorrect?
Yes. Apologize for not stating this. Currently using Redding Body sizing die and for FL using an RCBS full sizing die.
Geesh if I had looked just a little harder before submitting I would have found this. Anyone believe this would assist in headspace measuring...
Hi Reloader Gurus,
Has anyone got suggestions on how to inexpensively measure (not cheap to sacrifice safety) headspace for a 338 Win Mag. In the past I used a specific FF case that was correctly measured for headspace spec and that worked okay but I am looking for something a lil better...
