Availability: In Stock
The L.E. Wilson Case Gage 338 Lapua is an essential tool for reloaders who demand precision in cartridge preparation. Whether you're working up loads for long-range hunting or precision rifle competition, this one-piece case gage lets you quickly verify critical dimensions before they hit your press—catching the kind of mistakes that degrade case life or create dangerous pressure spikes. Unlike eyeballing it, a Wilson gage paired with a quality caliper gives you hard numbers on overall length and datum-to-head measurement, so you know exactly where your brass stands before resizing.
Oversizing is one of the most common reloading errors, and it shortens case life dramatically. The 338 Lapua gage helps you set your full-length resizing die correctly the first time, which means fewer reshaping cycles, longer-lasting brass, and more consistent velocity. The straightforward design—no adjustments, no guesswork—works with standard 7/8"-14 press dies. After firing and before the next reload, drop your cases in, take a measurement, and decide: trim or go straight to sizing. It's simple, fast, and it works.
L.E. Wilson gages have been the reloader's standard for decades because they're built to last and they're built to be used. This gage arrives with instructions and ships in a protective cardboard box.
| Overall Length | 2.494" |
| Large End ID | .473" |
| Small End ID | .347" |
| Outer Diameter | .991" |
| Finish | Silver with knurled grip |
| Included | Gage and instructions |
Insert a fired or resized case into the gage, then use a caliper to measure overall length at the case mouth and datum-to-head length near the shoulder. Compare your measurements against your target dimensions. Cases that exceed length should be trimmed; if datum-to-head is off, you may need to adjust your resizing die.
This is the regular style—a fixed one-piece gage. L.E. Wilson also makes an adjustable style for belted magnum cartridges, where the belt position varies and you need flexibility to accommodate that variation. The 338 Lapua uses a fixed gage.
Any quality dial or digital caliper will work. You're simply measuring from the inside edges of the gage to determine case length and headspace dimensions, so standard reloading calipers are all you need.
This gage is designed for use with 7/8"-14 thread full-length resizing dies, which is the standard thread size for most modern progressive and single-stage presses. It's a measuring tool, not a die—it sets on your bench while you dial in your press.
