Default Lee trim gauge in Calgary

I am on the hunt for a lee trim gauge in 30-06spr. I will look first at Wholesale but I'm not holding my breath that they have the cartridge I'm looking for. Who else carries these?

Thanks!

I've seen them in that store in high river and occasionally at proline. But can't think of anyone else.

Why not just use your calipers FAF ? Unless I'm missing something here.

I think it's worth finding one. If you can't, call Lee.

I might be calling it something wrong. I need the little stem deal that screws into the cutter for the lee setup that you can use a chuck for a drill and has a shell holder that screws into it. Sorry I don't think my description clears it up much lol. But you can buy on for each chambering you load for. It's a fairly slick deal. I put a case In the shell holder then trim, chamfer, deburr, clean inside of the neck and run some steel wool along the case as it spins in my cordless drill. Do it while I watch tv

Ah, gotcha. Did you call Udo? If he's got one, I can pick it up and mail it to you if you like.

I use the same setup as you do FAF,I believe its called a dead length gauge? WSS used to carry them in /06 but whether or not tey have any in stock is another matter entirely.Order one if you have too
