Machined from \u003cstrong\u003esteel\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003esilver\u003c\/strong\u003e finish, this caliber-specific gauge is part of Hornady's Lock-N-Load reloading ecosystem and is built to the same SAAMI dimensional standards as production 300 PRC chambers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e300 PRC\u003c\/strong\u003e (Precision Rifle Cartridge) is a magnum-length bottleneck cartridge built around a .308-diameter bullet, and its SAAMI dimensions are tighter than many legacy magnums. Dropping each fired and resized case, and every finished round, through the gauge catches over-stretched brass, improperly sized necks, and out-of-spec ammo before it reaches the firing line, helping prevent stuck cases, hard chambering, and pressure irregularities at the range. As an at-the-bench quality control step, it is one of the simplest ways to confirm a reload is safe to chamber.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"\u003eTo use, simply \u003cstrong\u003eensure a correct fit\u003c\/strong\u003e by dropping sized cases or loaded rounds into the top of the gauge - if the case falls fully into the chamber, it will chamber in your rifle. The Lock-N-Load Cartridge Gauge is a measuring and QC tool only and is not intended for decapping, resizing, or as a substitute for proper load development with a current reloading manual.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hornady","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55000210276674,"sku":"140677","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0997\/7921\/5682\/files\/hires_dbdf4f9b-86e3-424e-add5-ecdd569cc4b3.png?v=1784405032","url":"https:\/\/centerfiresystems.com\/products\/hornady-lock-n-load-cartridge-gauge-300-prc","provider":"Centerfire Systems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
