Sinclair International Shoulder Bump Gage Insert #28, 28 Degree, 22-250/223/243

The Sinclair International Shoulder Bump Gage Insert #28, cut at a 28-degree shoulder angle for 22-250/223/243, lets precision handloaders measure exactly how much shoulder they are bumping back during full-length sizing. Bumping the shoulder too far shortens headspace and can lead to case stretching and shorter brass life, while not bumping enough risks a chamber that will not close smoothly. This insert works with Sinclair’s comparator body to give a repeatable, caliber-correct shoulder measurement before and after sizing, so you dial in the 0.001 to 0.002-inch bump precision bench rest and long-range shooters rely on.
