The L.E. Wilson 260 Remington case gage is a single-piece precision tool designed to help reloaders verify fired brass dimensions and set up full-length resizing dies correctly. Oversizing cases during the resizing process is one of the most common reloading mistakes—and one of the easiest to prevent with the right measurement tool. This gage lets you quickly check both overall length (to flag cases that need trimming) and datum-to-head length (to confirm proper headspace), so you can dial in your 7/8"-14 press-type dies with confidence and keep case life from taking unnecessary hits.
If you're loading 260 Remington, accurate headspace control is non-negotiable for consistent performance and safety. The L.E. Wilson gage gives you a go/no-go reference that's faster and more reliable than guesswork, and it costs far less than replacing a batch of prematurely worn brass. The design is straightforward: simply chamber the fired case into the gage, then measure the gap between the case and the gage's reference surfaces using a caliper. A few seconds per case, and you'll know exactly where your dies need adjustment.
This is the standard (non-adjustable) version, built as a solid one-piece body with knurling for grip. L.E. Wilson also makes adjustable versions for belted magnums, but the regular gage is the right choice for 260 Remington and other standard rifle cartridges. If you're serious about case longevity and consistent rounds, a case gage is one of the most cost-effective additions to your reloading bench.

You'll need a caliper (dial or digital) to measure the gap between your fired case and the gage. The gage itself provides the reference surface; the caliper gives you the actual measurement.
Yes. The primary purpose of this gage is to help you set up your 7/8"-14 press-type full-length resizing dies correctly. By measuring headspace and overall length with the gage and a caliper, you can dial in your dies to minimize case resizing and extend case life.
No—this gage is specifically designed for 260 Remington. L.E. Wilson makes gages for many cartridges, so verify the gage matches your specific caliber.
The regular (standard) version is a one-piece gage for standard rifle cartridges like 260 Remington. L.E. Wilson also makes adjustable-style gages for belted magnum cartridges, where the belt provides headspace support and die setup requires different approach to avoid excessive shoulder resizing.
