6 & 6.5 CREEDMOOR: Use to check headspace of 6 Creedmoor and 6.5 Creedmoor
RIMLESS CARTRIDGE HEADSPACE: The proper use of Headspace Gages is the most reliable way to test rifle chamber length. Headspace in a rimless cartridge is the distance between the bolt face and a datum line, determined by SAAMI, where the front of the cartridge rests on its shoulder when the bolt is closed.
NO-GO: Corresponds to the maximum headspace we recommend for gunsmiths’ chambering new bolt-action rifles. This is not a SAAMI-maximum measurement. If a rifle closes on a NO-GO gage, it may still be within SAAMI specifications, or it may have excessive headspace. To determine if there is excessive headspace, the chamber should then be checked with a FIELD gage. The NO-GO gage is a valuable tool for gunsmiths’ reaming new chambers, in order to ensure tight and accurate headspace
GO: Corresponds to the minimum chamber dimensions. If a rifle closes on a GO gage, the chamber will accept ammunition that is made to SAAMI maximum specifications. The GO gage is essential for checking a newly-reamed chamber in order to ensure a tight, accurate, and safe chamber that will accept SAAMI maximum ammo.
PRECISION MACHINED: Manufactured from top-quality, hardened steel and precision ground to ANSI and SAAMI tolerances. Headspace tolerance ground to a very exacting ±.00015. Each Headspace Gage thoroughly inspected with NIST-certified measurement tools to ensure the highest quality product.
