Anybody used the Hornady concentricity guage? Does it actually work?

Works as advertised. I played around with it a little and will have one shortly.

Thanks. I've been wanting to get something to check runout & I saw this Hornady set up. Looks interesting.

I am waiting to get one of these. It looks cool I just hope it works as advertised. Glad to hear people are liking their's so far.

I have one....I seem to have up to 10-thousandths run-out, using Plain-Jane RCBS dies. Easy to correct the run-out and very fast with the concentricity gauge. I get down to less than two thousandths very fast with loaded ammunition, and have seen a marked decrease in groups size. That said, my buddy borrowed it and he felt that it opened his groups up (his ammo was loaded with competition dies, and run-out was around 1-4 thousandths with most less than two thousandths). I was shocked at the runout in off the shelf hunting ammo, and I corrected all of it I had. Hope that helps!

I have one, and a Sinclair run out gauge, I don't trust the Hornady, rounds that show no run out on the Sinclair, always indicate run out on the Hornady.
