Rimless cartridge headspace: the proper use of headspace gages is the most reliable way to test rifle chamber length. To determine if there is excessive headspace, in order to ensure tight and accurate headspace.
Headspace in a rimless cartridge is the distance between the bolt face and a datum line, determined by SAAMI, where the front of the cartridge rests on its shoulder when the bolt is closed. Each headspace gage thoroughly inspected with NIST-certified measurement tools to ensure the highest quality product. Go: corresponds to the minimum chamber dimensions. 243 win: use to check headspace of 243 win. 7mm-08, 260 Rem. 308 win.
If a rifle closes on a go gage, the chamber will accept ammunition that is made to SAAMI maximum specifications. This is not a SAAMI-maximum measurement. If a rifle closes on a no-go gage, it may still be within SAAMI specifications, or it may have excessive headspace.
Go: corresponds to the minimum chamber dimensions. Headspace tolerance ground to a very exacting ±. 00015. No-go: corresponds to the maximum headspace we recommend for gunsmiths’ chambering new bolt-action rifles. To determine if there is excessive headspace, the chamber should then be checked with a FIELD gage. 6 & 6. 5 creedmoor: use to check headspace of 6 Creedmoor and 6. 5 creedmoor.
Maximum length: the forster nato maximum rifle chamber gage checks to see that the rifle does not have excessive headspace, which could lead to dangerous pressure problems. Rem. Precision machined: manufactured from top-quality, hardened steel and precision ground to ANSI and SAAMI tolerances.
00015. Nato minimum rifle chamber gages check to see that the rifle will accept the longest headspace dimension NATO ammunition cases that are currently manufactured. The nato maximum Headspace Gage measures 1. 6455". The 5. 56 nato maximum chambering requires a slightly longer headspace than the commercial 223 cal. If a rifle closes on a go gage, accurate, the chamber will accept ammunition that is made to SAAMI maximum specifications.

Measuring meaningful headspace: properly speaking, and for safety purposes, and the gun’s actual chamber length, one measures “headspace” as the difference between the length of a standard cartridge, as represented by a gage, when the head of the cartridge is flush against the bolt face. The go gage is essential for checking a newly-reamed chamber in order to ensure a tight, accurate, and safe chamber that will accept SAAMI maximum ammo.
