Redding Instant Indicator W/ Dial/223 Remington

The Redding Instant Indicator with dial for .223 Remington is a precision headspace and case measurement tool built for reloaders who demand consistency. Whether you're sorting brass, verifying case trim length, or dialing in bullet seating depth, this gauge lets you compare dimensions with accuracy to .001 inch—fast enough to stay in your workflow but precise enough to catch problems before they go downrange. It's the kind of tool that separates careful handloaders from guessers.

What makes the Instant Indicator stand out is its versatility. Swap contactors and bushings and you can run quality checks across your entire reloading bench: fired cases from different rifles, sized cases for uniformity, shoulder bump consistency, trim length, loaded ammunition, and bullet sorting. The included dial indicator gives you a clear, repeatable reference point for each measurement. No more eyeballing or crossing fingers that your brass is truly uniform.

The setup comes ready to use out of the box with everything you need for .223 Remington work. You get a bore diameter bushing, surface contactor, shoulder contactor, headspace gauge, and detailed instructions.
