Sorry, Since we are running at full capacity to get caught up on barrels that we have way over shot our lead time on (That would be my fault, I am the worst in the industry at guessing, er, I mean calculating lead times) we wont be able to make them anymore.
However, since I know there are about a hundred of you fine lads wanting case guages, I am working out a deal with L.E. Wilson to make me 250 case guages, which I will promptly turn around and sell. If it looks like we will run out I will have them keep producing them for me.

Please have them also replicate the entire min-spec chamber within the gauge so that you can test loaded rounds to make sure they will chamber. Bullet runout when inserted in a case can sometimes prevent a round from chambering. This will detect that. Ideally they should be made with pressure barrel reamers as that is the smallest legal chamber.

Aw shucks. I was hoping I was early enough on the list to get an email or a call. I'll have to wait for a Wilson one. Thanks Aaron for getting these made. I appreciate it.

Still no luck with wilson, so I have just been making one or two on a manual before I leave the shop for the night. Give me a call.
