Overview

Built for use with the Hornady Lock-N-Load Overall Length Gauge, this modified case helps measure bullet relationship to the lands of a barrel during reloading setup. It is intended for shooters who want a dedicated case prepared for that specific gauge system, with the flash hole replaced by threads for attachment. Use it as part of a careful cartridge setup process when working with .222 Remington. The gauge is sold separately, so this component fits into an existing reloading workflow rather than standing alone.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Requires the Hornady Lock-N-Load Overall Length Gauge, which is sold separately, so this is not a stand-alone measuring tool.
  • This modified case is specific to .222 Remington, so it only fits that cartridge application.
  • It is a purpose-built accessory for measuring bullet relationship to the lands, not a general reloading component for broader use.
  • The flash hole has been altered for gauge use, so it is intended for this measurement task rather than normal case function.
