Ammo box labels

[dieselmudder]

Lets see if these work, they're ammo box labels i downloaded from another site. They are formatted to fit on Avery brand labels, 8163 or any page of 2x4, 10 labels per page I believe. Ive not got my hands on any to try yet.

Bookmarking this for future reference and saving in my docs.

I've been using those little index cards with handwritten notes.

Wish I could go in and change some of the calibers. Didn't see a 357 Mag.

 

[dieselmudder]

It only let me download 10. There was a 357. I'll add it when I can get back to the computer.

 

[dieselmudder]

Perhaps we could get this pinned, to make it more readily available........ ?

 

[dieselmudder]

Couple more.

That's really good diesel. Thanks for that !!!!!

Not that I'm a big reloader,,,,,but that generic one is great for all those boxes of Lee slugs I've stocked up.

Thanks diesel!

 

[old mossy]

It's pinned.

 

[dieselmudder]

It's pinned.

Thank you. I feel it makes a useful addition to the board.

I just looked at these and I have to ask:
Which of you guys are using an optical comparator?

The last one that I saw used cost (The QC shop at Vendo) over $30k (Starret) but I see you can get some Japanese ones now for under $6000.

Still a bit expensive for me.

 

[dieselmudder]

Not an optical comparator. A bullet comparator. Attaches to calipers, for measuring base to ogive length of loaded rounds. More accurate than COAL. As bullet tips aren't always uniform.

 

[CaddmannQ]

Ahhh, so a little gauge of sorts.

I was thinking of the one they used, with built in XY table. It was the size of a washing machine.

 

[dieselmudder]

Nice thing about digital calipers, is the ability to reset zero, after the comparator is attached. I still use dial, so its a handy annotation, because a base to ogive measue is considerably longer than a standard COAL. And could be very confusing.

 

[CaddmannQ]

This is also the major advantage of the digital scale.

BTW Thanks Dieselmudder. I bought a Hornaday comparitor for the .223.
