For use with the Lock-N-Load Bullet Comparator, Bullet Comparator Inserts are created; this eliminates variables when determining the overall length of a bullet. Due to material variance and tip quality, bullet length can vary by a few thousandths. The reloader can measure the bullet from the base to a particular position on the ogive, which has minimal to no change, using the Lock-N-Load Bullet Comparator Inserts. The reloader can add more precision to their hand loads with the help of this flexible system, which results in better groups at the range and more meat in the freezer. It also gives the reloader a far more reliable way to track the overall length of their reloads. Specifically made for the Lock-N-Load (LNL) 24 (.243/6mm), this comparator insert.
Q: Is this the same as measuring overall length (COAL)?
No. It measures base-to-ogive, which is more consistent and preferred for precision reloading.
Q: What cartridges does this work with?
Any cartridge using .243 / 6mm bullets (e.g., .243 Win, 6mm Creedmoor, 6mm Dasher, 6mm BR).
Q: Do I need other components?
Yes. You’ll need:
Q: Why is ogive measurement important?
The ogive is what contacts the rifling, making it the most reliable reference point for seating depth.
Q: Can beginners use this?
Yes—it's simple to use and a great upgrade for improving consistency.
