Hornady Lock-N-Load A Series Modified Case - 6.5 Grendel (A65G)

The Hornady Lock-N-Load A Series Modified Case in 6.5 Grendel (A65G) is a specialized reloading gauge insert designed to work with Hornady's Lock-N-Load Precision measuring system. If you're loading rifle ammunition and need consistent bullet seating depth or overall cartridge length verification, this modified case insert lets you measure directly against a fired case from your rifle's chamber, eliminating guesswork and producing ammunition that chambers reliably in your specific firearm.

The key to accuracy here is the design: the case neck is machined to be perfectly round and slightly opened at the mouth. This geometry lets you insert a bullet concentrically—meaning centered and square—without binding or misalignment. That concentricity matters when you're chasing tight tolerances and consistency. The insert threads into your Lock-N-Load gauge with a fine thread pitch, which keeps everything locked down and square for precise measurements.

This insert is caliber-specific to 6.5 Grendel, so you're measuring against the exact cartridge you're loading. Whether you're working up loads for precision rifle competition, long-range hunting, or general accuracy improvement, having a chamber-specific reference point removes a major variable from the reloading equation. It's a straightforward tool that rewards attention to detail.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Lock-N-Load gauges does this insert work with?

This modified case insert is designed to thread into Hornady Lock-N-Load Precision gauges. It uses a fine-pitch thread to attach securely and ensure square alignment during measurement.

Can I use this insert for other calibers?

No. This insert is caliber-specific to 6.5 Grendel. If you reload other calibers, you'll need the corresponding insert for each cartridge.

How does this improve my reloading consistency?

By measuring directly against a case modified from your own rifle's chamber, you establish a chamber-specific reference. This lets you set bullet seating depth and overall cartridge length to match your rifle's actual dimensions, rather than working from generic standard specifications.

What's included in this purchase?

You receive the A Series modified case insert for 6.5 Grendel. The Lock-N-Load Precision gauge itself is sold separately.
