Hornady Lock-N-Load Overall Length (OAL) Gauges - Manual (Page 5)

SENDING BRASS FOR FACTORY
MODIFICATION
Your brass cases can be sent to the factory for
modification. This includes all sizes of centerfire style
cases, from 17 caliber to 50 caliber BMG, including
WILDCATS and IMPROVED brass (Caseheads smaller
than the 223 REM family will require a “Hornet Adaptor”
which allows you to attach these small cases to the O.A.L.
Gauge).
We prefer that you send brass that has been
fired (fireformed) in the gun that you want the brass
to fit. We prefer that you DO NOT RESIZE THE FIRED
BRASS. This will ensure a proper fit with your chamber
modification.
Hornady will deprime, drill, and tap threads in the
customer’s furnished case, asa well as inside ream the
neck to a diameter that is .002" over the bullet diameter.
This is done so that the bullet will slip easily in the
modified case. The modified case will be packaged in a
plastic storage tube.
Any of your brass, including all wildcat sizes, can be
custom modified at our factory for use with either
gauge. Simply send us two fired cases by mail with $15
in a padded envelope – no SASE needed now – for quick
turnaround (call or visit our Web site for more information).
IMPORTANT:
Chamfer/Deburr all Modified Cases
before use!
DO NOT RESIZE MODIFIED CASES!
