The Hornady Lock-N-Load Modified Case is a 6.8 Western case threaded at the head to screw onto Hornady's Lock-N-Load Overall Length Gauge. With the bullet you plan to load seated in its slightly opened neck, the gauge lets you push the bullet forward until it touches the lands, giving a true measurement of where the rifling starts in your chamber.

That number lets a handloader set seating depth from real chamber data instead of book length, for consistent jump to the lands and better accuracy. The gauge itself is sold separately, in straight and curved versions, and each modified case is caliber specific. This case is a measuring tool only, not for loading live ammunition.
