This video from Brownells Gun Tech Steve Ostrem demonstrates how to use the Hornady Overall Length (OAL) Gauge to achieve more consistent handloaded ammunition. The OAL Gauge, along with a modified case and the Hornady Bullet Comparator, helps precisely set bullet seating depth to eliminate freebore and ensure the bullet enters the rifling without cant. This method is presented as crucial for maximizing accuracy and performance from reloaded cartridges. The tutorial covers the setup and use of the tools to determine the optimal seating depth and how to apply this to the reloading process on a press, even suggesting a micrometer seating die as a helpful, though not strictly essential, addition.
