Hornady Lock-N-Load Cartridge Gauge 22-250 Rem Silver

The Hornady Lock-N-Load Cartridge Gauge for 22-250 Remington is a precision-machined steel inspection tool that lets the reloader confirm a correct fit of brass cases and loaded ammunition in SAAMI-spec chambers before heading to the range. Cut to the exact chamber dimensions of the .22-250 Rem, the gauge provides a fast, reliable way to verify that resized cases and finished rounds match chamber specs so out-of-spec or improperly sized ammunition is caught on the bench instead of at the range.

Part of Hornady's Lock-N-Load reloading line, this cartridge gauge slips right into the reloading workflow. Simply drop a resized case or a loaded round into the gauge and confirm it chambers smoothly. Any case that sticks, hangs up, or refuses to drop is flagged for further trimming, sizing, or full-length resizing before it is loaded or fired. It is an inexpensive insurance policy against stuck cases and unsafe chamber conditions when working up .22-250 Rem loads.

The gauge is machined from steel and finished in silver for corrosion resistance on the reloading bench, carrying the same quality standard reloaders expect from the Hornady Lock-N-Load family of reloading tools and accessories.
