Hornady Bullet Comparator - Manual

.
.
Simply stated, the Bullet Comparator measures
loaded rounds…precisely!
Measuring cartridge lengths across the bullet tips is not a reliable (or
repeatable) method for measuring your loaded rounds. It is not
uncommon for variations of up to .025" to exist from one round to the
next when measured across the bullet tips. Bullet tips vary
considerably due to the way in which bullets are made. Our Bullet
Comparator solves that problem by measuring your rounds from a
reliable surface on the bullet – the ogive – to provide consistent,
precise measurements of your rounds. The Bullet Comparator is also
used by many shooters to check uniformity of bullets – from base to
ogive – which is critical to accuracy.
Our Bullet Comparator easily attaches to the blade of your caliper with
a thumbscrew and uses interchangeable insert bushings to measure
from the bullet ogive. These bushings are available in fourteen (14)
sizes from .17 caliber to .45 caliber.
The Complete Set (B14) includes 14 inserts: .172, .204, .224
(5.56mm), .243 (6mm), .257, .264 (6.5mm), .277, .284 (7mm), .308
(7.62mm/8mm), .338, .358, .375, .416, .458.
When used in conjunction with the OAL Gauge, the Bullet Comparator
provides the ultimate in precision measurement. The Bullet
Comparator will properly align the OAL Gauge for proper, precise
measurement using your caliper. This method allows direct
comparison of your loads as you set up your bullet seating die for the
correct bullet free-travel (jump). Complete instructions included.
