I've got a Mitutoyo dial vernier I won for the 5th form engineering prize at Ruapehu College in 1983. They are still in use in the machine shop, and still check against gauge blocks. Buy once........

Exactly same experience recently with my no-branders. Had been 100% for ages then somewhat suddenly went to hell. My engineer mate had a look and that's all it was- a dirty contact.

For acceptable accuracy and price I'd recommend "Igaging" products for measurement. I've got a few of these and they don't have the problems other cheaper sets have around chewing through batteries...

Ive got a brand new set of Digital Mitutoyo (200mm/8") going for $200 plus postage if your interested?

I use a vernier scale Mitutoyo most of the time - no electronics to go wrong! If you do want lower- price digital though I'll throw in a suggestion for Shahe. Yes, they're Chinese and you can buy...

Yes, it is a thing. But if using charge weights of IMR4198 and H4198 and Re7 as I've mentioned in this thread you will be well safe, if you wanted to reduce loads even further than these levels i...

It really comes down to what projectile you use, and how that performs at that impact velocity at said distance. Hence why frangible varmint bullets can work quite well with these lower velocities....

Great persistence and Nice shooting. A good lesson of both trouble shooting and reloading! At 2800 fps with the 178 you’ve done the full circle back to the .30-06 in a different platform and with...

For the purpose of reduced recoil loads, you can use AR2207 and Reloder 7 in place of IMR 4198. These powders do work well in cases up to 3006 sized cases. Here's some more info from the chap...
