calipers

[alan98]

I'm looking for a good caliper for reloading that is good quality and decent priced. Don't want a cheap one as I've had a few of those and they don't seem to last. Anyone recommend a good one for mid price level. 80-100.00 or so would be fine

I've had a Brown & Sharpe caliper I bought off ebay in your price range. I've tested it against my mic standards and found it to be very accurate.

Wonder if these would be decent?

Mitutoyo, Model # 505-689. These are dial type calipers with the "more" smoother action.
Made in Japan. Purchased them from Enco but I would shop around. Pretty sure they were over a $100.00.
Not a bad tool.

You can't go wrong with Mitutoyo, Starrett or Brown & Sharp. Decide if you want dial or digital then shop around.

I recently bought a new Mitutoyo Digimac on eBay for $115. It is excellent.
