Burstfire Neck Tension Gauge – The essential tool for any serious reloading enthusiast. This device accurately measures the amount of tension inside the neck of your brass cases, ensuring consistent and precise neck tension every time.
Neck tension gauges are handy tools for reloaders who want to achieve consistent and accurate bullet seating. They allow you to measure the inside diameter of your case necks. By using neck tension gauges, you can avoid excessive or insufficient neck tension, which can affect the accuracy and performance of your ammunition.
Burstfire neck tension gauges are easy to use and come in different 7Â sizes to suit your reloading needs. They have 5 stepped diameters metal tool. You simply insert the tool into the neck of your sized case and slide it until one of the diameters fits snugly. If it stops at the first notch (from bottom), you have 0.001 neck tension, 2nd notch 0.002, and up to 0.005.
————————
Burstfire Neck Tension Gauges is a 5 Step Gauge, in 0.001 increments starting at .001 below bullet dimension. Example: .224 starts at .223 at the bottom, and up to .219. For precision loading, you typically look for 0.001 neck tension. So your case should all stop on the first notch of the gauge (from bottom). If it bottoms out, you likely don’t have enough neck tension. If you can’t insert it on top one (0.219), it means you have more than 0.005 and likely too much neck tension.
