Forster .300 AAC Blackout SAAMI Dimensioned No-Go Length Rimless Headspace Gauge

Every gunsmith knows that the proper use of a headspace gage is the most reliable way to test the length of a rifle chamber. "Headspace" refers to the distance between the face of the breech and the base of the cartridge when the action is closed. Excessive headspace can be dangerous and can impair accuracy. For example, unsupported brass fired in a rifle with excessive headspace can rupture, causing gas to blow rearward like rocket exhaust, posing a serious safety risk. Forster Headspace Gages are made with meticulous care and precise manufacturing standards to ensure accurate testing of your rifle's chamber. If a rifle closes on a NOGO gage, it indicates that the rifle chamber may have excessive headspace, which could compromise both safety and performance.
