The Forster 6mm Remington Go Gauge (brand part no. HG0244G) is a precision steel headspace gauge sized for the 6mm Remington, a flat-shooting cartridge popular for both varmint and deer-sized game. Forster Products machines it to a fixed 1.777-inch length representing the minimum acceptable headspace; the bolt should close freely on this gauge in a properly finished chamber. It’s the baseline check used alongside a no-go gauge whenever a barrel is fitted or a chamber needs verification. Stock it with the rest of our gunsmithing tools and gunsmith supplies for rebarrel and repair work.
