Frugal Cartridge Length Measuring Device

[anyrange]

There are many devices on the market for sale to assist one in measuring the maximum cartridge in one’s chamber. They all are good tools. Nevertheless, why not make your own? Use the link below for the complete story on how to make a very inexpensive measuring device for maximum cartridge length. This device lets me seat a bullet into a special case using the reloading press or actual rifle chamber for measuring the overall length. Then the seated bullet maybe unseated, or pushed back out using a screw, after measuring and reused repeatedly. This system works great and is very handy when setting up a new bullet in the seating die. If you over seat a charged round during set up, then shoot it or pull it. Using this device for initial set up prevents you from having to shoot some of those short rounds now and again.
