Hornady Lock-N-Load Cartridge Gauge 30-06 Springfield Silver

The Hornady Lock-N-Load Cartridge Gauge in 30-06 Springfield is a precision reloading tool designed to confirm that your cases and loaded ammo will fit correctly in a SAAMI-specification chamber. Each gauge is a precision-machined, cylindrical steel tool cut to the exact SAAMI tolerances for its designated cartridge, making it a quick and reliable way to check headspace and case dimensions before you commit to a full reloading session or send rounds downrange.

Cut from steel and finished in silver, this 30-06 Springfield gauge slips easily over a resized case or loaded round - if the case drops fully into the gauge, it is within SAAMI chamber dimensions; if not, the reloader immediately knows the case needs additional resizing or trimming. It's an inexpensive, no-guesswork addition to any reloader's bench and is part of Hornady's wider Lock-N-Load line of reloading accessories. Simply insert the case to confirm a correct fit and move on with confidence.
