Hornady Lock-N-Load Bullet Comparator Body

Description

The Hornady Lock-N-Load Bullet Comparator Body is a dedicated comparator body designed to attach to the blade of a caliper to help reloaders measure overall cartridge length from the bullet ogive. It accepts interchangeable inserts (sold separately) so measurements reference the ogive instead of the bullet tip, improving consistency in seating depth. The unit is intended for use with Hornady’s Lock-N-Load O.A.L. Gauge or standard calipers to set and compare bullet seating while reloading. This listing is for the comparator body only (red); bullet inserts and the O.A.L. Gauge are sold separately.
