Have a barrel chambered in 280 RCBS, shouldered and not a Remage set up. Can't find head space gages to check it though. Loosely screwed onto the action, the lettering engraved is just above the stock line (see picture). If torqued down, I'm sure it would line up but not going off that to tell me it is headspaced correctly. I do have some fired brass from this barrel.
Can someone either lead me to some gages or a smith for some advice. I asked a couple local smiths and they don't have gages either.
I thought I could use 280 Rem gages since I was told you could shoot factory 280 Rem from this barrel, but want to be sure.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
