What concentricity gauge are you using?

[HoustonB77]

I think it's time I night the bullet and pick up a concentricity gauge. I've been looking around and can't decide witch one to go with. I would love to have the 21st century but the $250 price tag is a little hard to swallow. What do you suggest?

The Hornady and Sinclair setups are around $100 or so and are fairly accurate. Of the two I prefer the Sinclair design a bit more I think. But the first thing that should go straight in the trash is the indicator that comes with them, step up to at least a Fowler or SPI or if you can swing it or find one used a Mitutoyo, B&S or Starrett. Personally I just use a V-block and a test indicator these days.

I have a 21st Century and it has been great. Only other one I like is the Accuracy One but costs even more than the 21st Century

I’m using the Sinclair and have no issues with it. I use lots of runout gauges at work and I can’t see any need to have anything better.

Accuracy One.

Get one with a wheel, makes it easier. I can tell you that you will use it 5 times and it will collect dust.
