Head spacing by rim thickness for any cartridge is not acceptable when it comes to proof.

Re: .303 head space gauges
So how do they do it?, as a rimmed case like 7.62x54r headspace on the rim not the shoulder.That's why a lot of 54r headspace gauges are of the flat disc type.Ovenpaa wrote:Head spacing by rim thickness for any cartridge is not acceptable when it comes to proof.

Give a man a gun and he can rob a bank.....give a man a bank and he can rob the world!.
More than a vested interest in 7.62x54r!

Re: .303 head space gauges
I would be interested to know how they do it I have a set of 7.62x54R go and no go gauges they are Saami. If I was to get a barrel chambered using a Saami reamer and the Saami gauges does that mean I can not get the rifle proofed.
