Just a note on the above, #69: threaded "modified" cases are for the OAL gauge, a measurement that M. Cortina is at pains to emphasize is not required for his method. The stock photo I posted is...

RCBS make a calibre specific seating guage. Bos had a .270 win one for sale here recently. The hornady system above is more flexible if you shoot multiple calibres and you can thread your own cases...
