The Hornady Lock-N-Load 6.5x284 Winchester Modified Case is a precision-machined reloading tool made to work with Lock-N-Load Precision gauges, letting you measure cartridge overall length for 6.5-284 Norma firearms. Its threaded case-head attaches securely to the gauge, while the fine threads hold the case perfectly square in the chamber.
