Greetings all.
I decided that I am going to start loading 300 Win Mag, so I bought all the necessary items--dies, powder, primers, bullets, etc. I bought a Hornady case gauge (see photo). I noticed that it is different from my other case gauges in the fact that all of my other gauges have a notch at each end, which indicate if the case falls into acceptable length parameters. This new case gauge only has the notch at the base end of the gauge, not the mouth end. What am I missing here? Is 300 Win Mag different from other cartridges? Did Hornady forget to machine the mouth end of the gauge?
Thanks in advance for the replies.
Best regards,
Uncle Loodis
