Cortland, NY, USA……. The Reading Instant Indicator is now available in the 6.5 x47 Lapua cartridge, for the fall of 2016. The 6.5 x47 Lapua is an outstanding cartridge with tremendous mid to long range accuracy potential. Originally developed for use in the European 300 Meter CISM competition it uses a 308 bolt face but with a small rifle primer to allow greater strength in the case head. Increasing customer demand, has caused us to add to product line for late 2016 giving precision shooters a new and decided advantage when using this cartridge for competition or hunting.
We all know that accuracy is a function of consistency and the more consistent a round can be the better the results down range. The Reading instant indicator has long been recognized as a superior and easy to use comparator tool allowing the user to do a host of tasks accurately and repeatably on the press. This product does not require the individual to have significant experience with precision measuring devices or the need for calipers for its use. The tool allows for quick and precise comparison which determine headspace, can be used to sort cases for uniformity, can sort bullets for uniformity can be used to correctly set up a sizing die for uniform shoulder bump and also check true bullet seating depth off of the land bearing point of each individual bullet.
This final use in conjunction with a Reading competition, seating die on a T7 turret press allows the user to quickly and precisely uniform cartridges for correct bullet jump into the lands. After creating a dummy round that is into the lands of the rifle and using it to create zero on the dial indicator, each subsequent round can then be precisely seated to get to the proper depth. First long seat the bullet, index the turret head to the instant indicator make a reading, which will be on the plus side of zero. Calculate the amount needed to reach your desired bullet jump and remove that using the micrometer on the Reading competition, seating die. Net result a round perfect to land bearing point not simply COAL.
