Hornady Lock-N-Load Bullet Comparator Set, Body & 14 Inserts

Description

The Hornady Lock-N-Load Bullet Comparator Set provides a reliable method to measure cartridge overall length from the bullet ogive rather than the tip, reducing common tip-related variation of up to 0.025 inches. The comparator attaches to the blade of a caliper and uses interchangeable inserts to measure from a consistent surface on the bullet for repeatable results. This tool is intended for reloaders and precision-minded shooters who need to verify cartridge length and check bullet uniformity. The set includes a comparator body and a comprehensive range of inserts to cover multiple diameters.
