PTG headspace gauge compatibility

[adamsgt]

On the PTG web site they have a chart that shows interchangeability between headspace gauges. Their BR gauge is supposed to work with 22BR, 6mm BR,7mm BR, 20 BR and 30 BR. So, if I buy a headspace gauge that is labeled 6mm BR, I can use it in my 30 BR? That seems reasonable but reasonable isn't always right.

Yes, it will work on the 30BR...

It will say "BR Rem" on it

Headspace is measured from Head of the cartridge to shoulder. 6 BR , 30 BR etc all the same.

Well,

I was curious as the picture on Midway's site showed the gauge marked as "6MM BR". As I'm using it for a 30 BR I didn't know if there was some difference I wasn't aware of. Based on the response, it appears not. That's good as I just returned from Houston and the gauges were in the mail box and were marked PTG 6mm BR.

You are good to go.
Or "no go" as the case may be.
