Burstfire Large Primer Pocket GO Gauge Set- Large & Small - for Reloading/Case Prep (Large & Small GO Gauge Set)
Never guess again if your primer pockets were properly reamed or swaged. Include large & small primer pocket gauge. Enlarged body, curved (go gauge) / Swirl (no-go) design for a secure grip to be held by hand.
It can also be attached to an existing industry standard 8/32 threaded hand tool handle, to maximize comfort.
Using small primer pocket as an example. Our small gauge is made to 0.1725. Variation for small primers is 0.1745 - 0.1755 in diameter. ***Majority of small primers will be 0.175. We have found, a .175 primer, can be inserted in a .1725 pocket on a press, but may meet some resistance at .1755 (Will not work in most cases if hand priming. In this case simply set up the reamer / Swager to go just a tad bit further).
***Proper use of gauge: Make sure the gauge can be freely inserted into the pocket, without sticking / without requiring any force to push it all the way in, or pull all the way out.
o-Go Gauges are made .005 over max pocket dimensions. If the No-Go Gauge can be inserted, it indicates your primer pocket may be too loose for some primers. It is strongly recommended at that point to either recondition your pockets, or discard/recycle the case. At times, the No-Go Gauge may be partially inserted into the primer pockets. That is NOT an indication of a loose primer pocket. It has to be fully inserted, without any resistance.
