Hornady Vernier Ball Micrometer

Accurate case preparation is fundamental to consistent reloading. The Hornady Vernier Ball Micrometer delivers the precision you need to monitor case neck thickness—a critical variable in producing reliable ammunition.

Key Features

  • Ball anvil and chamfered spindle design measures case necks with exceptional accuracy right up to the case shoulder
  • 0.0001" accuracy across the full 0-1" measurement range
  • Ratchet stop mechanism ensures uniform measuring pressure for repeatable results shot after shot
  • Spindle lock preserves your measurement when removing the cartridge case, eliminating guesswork
  • Durable baked-enamel finish on the C-frame resists wear and corrosion
  • Includes protective storage case for safe transport and storage

Why It Matters

Case neck thickness directly affects bullet seating pressure and concentricity. Variations in neck thickness can cause velocity spreads and accuracy problems downrange. This micrometer gives you the data to sort cases by thickness and maintain the tight tolerances that separate good ammunition from great ammunition.

Whether you're a precision rifle competitor or a dedicated handloader seeking maximum consistency, the Hornady Vernier Ball Micrometer is an essential addition to your reloading bench.
