The Hornady Lock-N-Load Bullet Comparator emerges as an indispensable tool for the meticulous reloader, dedicated to achieving precision in ammunition loading. When it comes to measuring the seating depth from bullet ogive to the base of a loaded round, this comparator stands unmatched in eliminating inconsistencies that can compromise accuracy.
Designed with versatility in mind, this comparator seamlessly attaches to any caliper, enabling accurate measurements across a range of cartridges from .17 caliber up through .45 caliber. For those seeking unparalleled exactness, pairing it with the Hornady Lock-N-Load OAL Gauge (available separately) is recommended. This combination affords reloaders the ability to determine precise bullet seating depths with confidence.
The true strength of the Bullet Comparator lies in its capability to align perfectly with your O.A.L. Gauge during measurement processes. By using a caliper alongside this setup, you unlock direct comparison capabilities for your loads—essential when adjusting your bullet seating die for optimal free-travel or "jump."
This offering includes only the red comparator body; specific bullet inserts are available separately and should be selected based on your particular needs.
