RCBS should post this video on their Case Master site page. Their videos never show the full features of their products and how to use them for best results. I received this Case Master the other week from Midway USA after viewing this video. For the price, this gauge is GREAT! Got down to measuring many of my boxed rounds and fired cases as well as some new Lapua cases. It's amazing how acentric (non-concentric) even Federal Match (Sierra SMK) .308W ammunition is... up to 0.007" (measured near the tip) acentric on some examples. Anyway, this new tool really opens my eyes on the potential terminal consistency of individual cartridges. Really fun and educational to play around with. I'll be using this for sorting my boxed ammo, and of course for assembling long-range rounds. As Eagle Eye and others have shown, marking the high or low position of the acentricity (very rarely is an assembled cartridge perfectly concentric) and consistently indexing those markings within the rifle's chamber considerably improves shooting consistency. Thanks for the very informative vid!

Head separation can be checked with a bent paper clip. Read that in years ago in Handloader magazine. But that tool is handy.

West Desert Shooter thanks.! I hope to the the neck turning video recorded and posted by this next weekend. They are a must have for producing really accurate rounds.!

I received my case master today and tried out the different functions. One thing I would suggest you try, and I stumbled upon it by accident. Put your dial on the edge of the sleeve and slowly rotate it. You should see no variation as I have none with mine. Then slip a case mouth over the stud under the bottom of the sleeve. With some downward pressure turn the sleeve as you rotate the case (same direction, it works quite smoothly in measuring your neck thickness. You can't measure accurately turning the case and not turning the sleeve also because of the friction...

Interesting, I'll give that a try this weekend when I'm playing around with some new cases I got. Thanks!

Take a wooden stirring paint stick glue a rubber pad the whole 12 in of it and use that to put pressure on the brass instead of doing it with your fingers and having tha gauge bounce because of uneven pressure

RCBS dropped the ball with their video... thank you for going through how to use this tool. Your video provided all the information needed to decide if I wanted to buy it or not. One question: have you noticed an improvement in your accuracy since you started using it? Proof is in the pudding.
@vaughnprecision7 жыл бұрын
Sam Bonz absolutely I've noticed a huge difference in accuracy. This will allow you identify issues and sort out cases that don't meet the specs.! Thanks for the comment and watching.!

I just got done watching your loading room remodel vids and couldn't remember what it looked like before so I came back and revisited this vid. Do you miss your pegboard you had up before? Is the new room all done now, completely? If you want to correct runout you've detected with the RCBS Casemaster, try the tool from Tru-Tool Equipment.com. It works well but good brass and a properly fitting seating stem negates its use.

I don't miss the pegboard at all. The shelving is much nicer I think. I'll check out the link you sent!

Since you have both runout tools, why don't you use the same round on them to compare results? I've done it (along with my Sinclair tool) and I think the results will surprise you.Anybody ever tell you that you sound just like Seth Rogen? LOL
@vaughnprecision7 жыл бұрын
Luvta Handload I've done that, I'm shocked at the difference. I've found the Hornady tool to be a little more finicky due to how the case rides in the tool. You sir are the first to ever say I sound like Seth Rogen. But after listening to myself and Seth, you might be right lol
