I always recon the whole "few thou" or "40 thou" thing is interesting, NZ went metric in 1976 as far as I know? Are people REALLY measuring everything in inches or just saying what they hear on US forums?

I just think most people know how to convert between the two, its common to use imperial in reloading so thats how people generally refer to measurements. Most verniers can display either metric or imperial. Working in thou's is very easy anyway its linear, not like working in fractions.
