10mm auto Case Gauge

Where can you find a good case gauge for 10mm auto? I have looked on several sites and only find S&W .40 gauges available. They may just be out of stock, but they also seem hard to find.

Thanks,

I would check Dillon if out of stock there, search the internet for Dillon 10mm case gage. Can you tell I prefer Dillon? ;)

Amazon has Lyman's for sale.
Good to know. I normally get Hornady, like my 9mm luger, but they don't seem to have one.
Your barrel makes an excellent case gauge. Remove barrel from slide and make sure ammo seats properly.
Works perfect for a 1911 type firearm.

Thanks, I have done that before. I find all my barrels are a little different. Some of them seem looser than others. Since the gauges follow the SAAMI, I like them as a reference point.

I bought an extra barrel for my Ruger 57. I plunk every 5.7 round I load!

I use the Lyman case gauges for all the cartridges I reload.
It may fit the guage .... but that don't mean it's going to fit your gun's chamber !
Trust me on this one .

Thanks, I couldn't find a Dillion, so I added the Lyman 10mm Auto to my Midway order.

L.E. Wilson 10mm max Gage has worked well for me
I did find a Lyman Guage. I have noticed that the Hornady gauges are a little looser than the Lyman gauges. Also, Lyman gauges size for length while Hornady allow the bullets to protrude. That make it a little easier to pop them out. I have both brands except for the 10mm. Hornady doesn't have a gauge for 10mm.
I've got a couple of CZs that resemble that remark.

You guys are probably tired of hearing about it, but in the case of my Zastava M70 32 acp, a properly seated bullet with cartridge sticks out of the chamber by an 1/8th inch. I have to go by does the cartridge rotate , and drop freely! Also, as is, I cannot shoot factory ammo in it, someone here suggested I seat my factory stuff deeper, or ream the chamber. Haven't gotten around to either. It does shoot good!
