Headspace gauges.
Alright, I know there are some serious reloaders out there, who out there uses a headspace gauge to set their dies? Anyone?

Re: Headspace gauges.
I never used headspace gauges but I do use an AOL gauge to set distance from the lands.

Re: Headspace gauges.
Ditto what Rich said.
It would be cheaper to just set the dies by using a factory load than to buy headspace gauges. It still doesn't make the reloaded ammo fit your particular gun any better. Check it with an AOL gauge so that you know where the lands are.
