7 years ago. But just watched it. Very good! I caught the math error...but you did too. Long ago. Thx for this video. I'm just getting into the precision part of reloading after 5 years or so of reloading experience. I've gotten ok at reloading based on different powder loads and found some very good precision from that, but this will help to get to a new level.
These gauges are handy,the original bench rest record was set in the early 70s I believe and took a long time to beat it. They didn’t have all these gauges back then lol.
Great tool but I had so much free bore in my bushmaster that there was. No way I could load anywhere near the lands and fit in the magazine. Looking for a single shot follower to fix this
In theroy, yes......according to hornady, that 2nd bushing is an estimate, it works for a variety of cases, within parameters......otherwise, right on.....
Are the red pieces that attach to your calipers from both kits the same? I already have the bullet OAL gauge kit and will order the headspace kit but not sure if I need the complete headspace kit or just the kit with the bushings
I thought the exactly same thing. If you're going to do an instructional video, at least use the right terminology and have proper camera angles. A poor effort in my opinion.
At 21:00 I misspoke. Five hundredths of an inch would be 0.05. I would start out at 1.920 not 1.9720. For some reason I added added in the 7 when I read the number. Good catch!!
I hope no one new to reloading watches this some of your theory is flawed, you can’t rely on a chron to measure pressure, it doesn’t measure pressure a strain gauge will measure pressure , properly installed. If your barrel is longer or shorter then the test barrel your velocity is going to be different. You can’t rely on that Hornady gauge with one test to determine the length at best it will be close , you need at least 5 tests with numbers very close using the same bullet, hopefully with a clean chamber and barrel, it’s going to be off a few thousands if it’s showroom clean or dirty. I’m not even going to approach When you start playing with Jam and Jump you can run into some serious pressure issues , you have got to start off with minimum powder charges and work up. The distance that you measured to your ojive that you claim will never change, try different grain bullets every different bullet weight will change the distance.
Any one new to reloading should be READING a good reloading manual form one of the reputable manufactures before they go anywhere near a reloading bench. One would hope that anyone with a modicum of common sense would have to know that when you change bullet weights you have to redo everything he just did FOR that bullet. Even the same weight bullet from different manufactures needs to have a complete work up done. This is advanced reloading not basic stuff. For years I've reloaded and never had a problem with blown or stuck cases. I'm just now starting to get into this as I have more time and the accuracy game is now calling my attention. For years a 1 inch group at 100-200 yards was just fine for hunting purposes.

Goodness.... Like watching grass grow.
Thank you for taking the time to explain this important topic so well. Now I know.
What is bro…?!
Confused the hell out of a simple process.

You will need the bushings for sure. Yes, the red pieces are the same. I'm 90% sure I have a set now :)
Did you watch your own video BEFORE you uploaded it??? Camera angles, names of equipment used, measurements etc. "That's a take! Let's upload this." 😱

Your AOL of 1.9720 would actually be .0020 deep into your lands - not a good situation!

I've added a correction in the details of this video. Thanks for pointing this out.
Datum line to ogive is not fixed. It vil change whit different bullet ogive and whit barrel wear. Otherwise your metode is very good.
Morten Breiland ..... datum line to ogive will be fixed if it's the same make of bullet. It will change with different makes of bullet though.

👍
“Hundredths of an inch”. What a clown.
should get all yr data and fax streight before doing yr vedio.
Hahaha....you should use auto correct before posting your comment....😀
