headspace guage goof! bought 250 guage for 6mm-22-250

[shawnba67]

So i snagged a go guage for a 250 savage of flea bay to use on a 6mm-22-250 im building. I did not realize they were different. aSammi lists the 250 as a max min of 1.589//1.579 at 26.5 degrees
the 22-250 is mAX MIN OF 1.584/1.579 AT 28 degree.
My chamber and reload dies are all based on 22-250 necked up. CAN I SALVAGE THIS AS A NO GO GUAGE? or is the difference in shoulder angle pretty neglibable in a sporting hunter grade rifle allowing its use as the go guage?? I have not measured my guage yet to see where it falls in the range of max min

Headspace gauges are relatively cheap. I would procure the right ones, both go and nogo.

If you don't want to buy them, you can rent for them for ridiculously low money; but you do have a short time to use them before returning.
